Art Exhibit Reception: Into Focus

Artist Statement

I create artwork through the manipulation of oil paint. My artistic journey started after attending an art exhibition approximately 10 years ago which prompted me to buy a few brushes, tubes of paint, and canvases. With no formal art education, my present set of skills are the product of failures, successes, and most importantly, experimentations. Only recently has by artistic path come into focus. Exaggerating color and contrast within a scene from nature fuels my passion for art. Beauty can be found around every corner. We just need to slow down and look closer.
