Violet Memories Print

Creative expression is my lifeline, expressing myself in color, texture and icons of the things that inspire me is my passion. I am an emotional being and I find solace and serenity while conveying my impression of the things I consider powerful yet delicate, strong yet graceful and intense yet peaceful. The subjects in my paintings are predominantly women, horses, hearts and flora. All of these themes represent graceful strength. I paint with vibrant color in acrylic to communicate poised power. Texture is vital to my message, therefore I often paint on wood. I view the original piece of wood or canvas or furniture as beautiful as it is and through the creative process it is enhanced though the creative process it is enhanced and grows and reveals something new and different. A metaphor for the human spirit.
