Description
Landscapes: conceptual, observed, abstract, have informed much of my art for many years. Rather than depicting a literal representation of an image my paintings focus on a unique interpretation of natural scenery capturing the mood, light and atmosphere of a place. Special attention is given to color and composition. As an art educator my natural inclination when creating art is to consider the elements and principles of art and design. Decisions that guide me … and constantly change.
Recently I began experimenting with water mixable oils. Sounds like an oxymoron …. But it can be a game changer. Many properties are similar but clean up is much easier and less toxic. Three pigments plus white were used for this painting: Indian Red, Yellow Ochre, Ultramarine Blue. I enjoy the challenge of producing the most varied palette possible with the least number of choices. Ultimately the concept and the process delivers the product.
