Ingrid Capozzoli Flinn was born in Detroit, Michigan.  She received Bachelor degrees from Wayne State University and the University of Michigan along with a Master of Fine Arts degree in Painting from Boston University.  She has been painting the female nude for over thirty years.  She works primarily in oil on canvas but has also worked with everything from traditional silverpoint on prepared paper, sumi ink to digital media.  She has exhibited her work across the US including Figureworks in Brooklyn and the Painting Center in New York City.   She lives and works Harlem, NY.

Ingrid Capozzoli Flinn works primarily in oil, but also experiments in water media. Her main subject is the figure in an interior space, primarily working with the female nude. She uses the female form as a vehicle of expression, transforming the body, morphing the figure and interpreting the form through color, light, form and space. Her interests include a strong sense of light, the iconic figure, the silhouette, chiaroscuro and most recently opacity and translucency with an emphasis on building the forms and space through layers of paint and mark making. In essence, she works both within the western tradition of painting, but also extends it to express a personal vision of the world.
