| On the Third Day God Created Earth |
Artist Statement: Jackson Pollack knew that “a painting has a life of its own.” For a painting to be authentic, the artist must put everything she knows about history, craftsmanship, life and her very being into its creation. A painting evolves from the interaction of these components to stand on its own. My paintings may suggest nature, but in my head they are challenges of a color palette, an idea, a moment in time, an experience that had meaning in my life. bio: My professional career was in education, teaching art at every level, to becoming President of Kendall College of Art and Design, Grand Rapids Michigan. After retirement I traveled the world setting up art and gallery programs in developing countries. I attended Wesley Theological Seminary, Washington, DC where I earned a Master’s Degree in Divinity. Since then I have consciously sought merge my creative energy with my spirituality. |
