No Artwork Today or Tomorrow

Well, my day didn't go as planned so no artwork to post and tomorrow is a travel day so most likely there will not be a piece. I will be sad to leave Lake Placid since being here is very relaxing but I need to get back into the swing of reality. I have a job interview on Tuesday and my best girl needs to get back to school.

I have been able to do a number of great sketches while being away and I can't wait to turn them into great pieces.

Stay tuned for more art coming on Tuesday.

Artist Statement

My work is a celebration of nature and women, specifically woman as mother. The female figure is a powerful one and dominates most of my works. Even the pieces reflecting trees are a tribute to the power of women signifying Mother Nature. Both are strong and feed my creative energy.

The pieces are abstract in design with a focus on form, movement and color. This is infused into my work, no matter what medium is used. The favored mediums are acrylic, pastel and oil. Each gives a different outcome and dimension to the piece. Pastels give a soft feel while acrylics give a strong, vibrant feel and oils allow for texture and movement.

The creative process remains the same regardless of the medium used or the subject matter chosen. Each piece starts out as a sketch that has been inspired by nature or life. It is developed and fine tuned before it is recreated in color.
