| Artist Statement: | Inspired by the beautiful coast of Maine, my work reflects a deep connection to the water, especially to salt marshes. The forms created by tidal streams cutting through the grasses, provide an endless array of imagery. I?can paint the same scene over and over and each time it will be different. The play of light and color, warmth and coolness, depth and atmosphere — all play a role in each painting. |
