Narciso is a recipient of the Iowa Arts Fellowship and completed her MFA in Book Arts at the University of Iowa Center for the Book in 2020, where she studied papermaking under Timothy Barrett. She also holds a Certificate in College Teaching in Arts &amp; Humanities from the University of Iowa and a BFA in Printmaking from the Hartford Art School. Her artists’ books and print work are held in Special Collections Libraries at the University of Utah and Baylor University, as well as private collections in the United States and abroad.
