ARTIST’S STATEMENT

I am motivated by a want to connect with my physical environment. I am a third-generation Southern female artist, from a family of female professional painters, each well-schooled in the classical traditions of painting and drawing. Unlike my mother and grandmother, who were both known for painting portraits of notable individuals, I gravitate to conveying ‘portraits’ of landscapes and still lifes. My work is spirited evidence of my process of attempting to visually understand, to interpret, to engage with, to reflect on, that which is directly in front of me.
