Away for a While

I have been away on vacation for over a week with no painting or drawing. It is so good to get home and back to the studio. Here is a triptych that I did last year; I am going to work on some more like this.

I have been painting for many years in several different media and have won awards in juried shows and had one-woman and small group shows. The learning aspect of painting has been a great joy and driving force for me. For the past few years I have become interested in abstract work and have been studying how to understand abstract work and how to do it.
I have found that the process of painting is more important to me, and expressing the feeling of a moment in time or place is what I am after with my painting. Abstraction and non-objective work more truly represents what I am feeling, and I have had a wonderful experience exploring the ways of expression. When I look back at my paintings from the past, I can see that this trend towards abstraction has been with me for a long time. Now that I have a better understanding of this, I am committed to following this avenue.
I love working with several different media, especially acrylic, oil pastel, and collage, and I am finding ways to combine these media into mixed media paintings.
