Bormann's career started in Spain where she studied
drawing at the School of Fine Arts in Malaga. She attended
history classes in Vienna and graduated from Stanford
University in 1979 with a Phi Beta Kappa degree in history
and was awarded the James Birdsall Weter prize for her
distinguished honors thesis. Four years of full-time study
at Atelier Lack, a Studio school teaching the fundamentals
of drawing and painting from life, followed. She has been a
full time painter for the past eighteen years and executed
portrait commissions in England and the United States. Her
studio work centers on the figure, nudes and interiors as
well as portraits and she works in a range of techniques
from direct painting to indirect methods incorporating
underpainting and glazing. She has also painted landscapes
in England, France, Spain, and the U.S..
