Orange quarters light and shadow

Orange quarters still life
the light and shadow caught my attention....I had to paint them.
In my daily painting practice I paint common objects that can often be taken for granted. I challenge myself to capture the immediacy of the moment with gestural marks and traditional painting techniques.

I enjoy the challenge of capturing the essence of a subject by balancing traditional drawing and painting techniques with gestural marks.
Through daily painting practice, my attention is focused on the present moment; creating paintings that seek to bring awareness to the inherent value of everyday objects.

Art can help us slow down and see things we have never seen before, bringing new and helpful perspectives.
I believe viewing art and the art-making process are vital tools for wellness.
