Artist Statement
I have rediscovered the joy in the process of drawing and painting as the official working world has started to be in my rearview, and I now have the flexibility to spend the necessary time. It helps that I have great support from family (TOM!) and friends, and VERY tolerant instructors. Being a member of the Jacksonville Artists Guild and The Art Center Cooperative as well as other regional and some national organizations keeps me apprised of the creativity of my contemporaries. I rely heavily on a group of friends who critique my works and their own in a clear and honest manner. One learns from one’s mistakes. When the mind turns on at 3 a.m., I do pay attention when it “solves” my creative dilemmas. Depicting the world and its participants the way that I see and feel them is what I enjoy. The beauty of the color wheel is that it is a guide, not an absolute. I can paint the world “realistically” but where is the fun in that? |
