  • During During the past year I have become interested in collage again.  This work was done with fragments from old paintings, trash and what ever else I could find that I thought fit in.  I usually like to add works that press what I thinking at the time.

chaos and calm

7/30/2018

Continuing with my interest in chaos and calm, I am learning that I can embrace both.  My work always reflects the world around me, and the world certainly has chaos and calm, although we have to strive for the calm! I am learning to accept the chaos as well.  This year I have also been inspired by a new online group, Global Art Project, in which a group of international artists exchange fragments through the mail and then make an artwork out of "frags".  I love participating with this group and have even been able to meet some of the artists in person as we had a group demonstration in Concord, NC at the Clearwater Artist Studios.  The show of collaborations will be there until the end of August. I have done collage in the past , but this has sparked a new approach. I have also been active with a group of Steven Aimone's students in a group online, and we are having two upcoming shows, one in North Charleston and one in Beaufort, SC.

Latest Works

I have talked about this before that I have two different approaches to my paintings. I still like to do "busy" paintings and "calm" paintings, and sometimes I try to combine them into one work. For now,  I am starting a new series called "Alternative"  (meaning an alternative me) which will have my latest "busy" works.  I guess I have to follow my mood and do different things as it occurs to me.  We will see where this leads!

While working at the ACA I did a lot of work, both on canvas and on paper.  This is one of my new series on paper done with acrylics and mixed media.  I enjoyed so much having the time and space to work everyday to create a new collection of paintings.

    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.
