The artist will be on hand to speak with visitors about her work which will remain on display through March 1. DJ Triple B will provide a soundtrack based on the artist and her work. Light refreshments will be provided.
Artist Statement: I create my paintings with an intuitive process. Nothing is planned or pre-engineered. I apply the paint on the canvas without conscious thought to subject, often rotating the canvas in different directions and looking to determine how the images will emerge. My paintings are often very sculptural, laden with texture and vibrant color, and always full of story. I use shape, patterns, and repetition to create whimsical scenes with rich tones and meaning. Much like the way a story provides setting, plot, characters, and action to elicit an emotion from the reader, I intend to do the same for the viewer through my work. Whether I’m creating icon-like imagery of strong female leaders like Ruth Bader Ginsburg or a surrealistic cityscape full of detail, I hope to energize the viewer and to provide them with that same sense of joy that I feel during the spontaneous and free process of painting.
