Embrace the Wonder Painting

ARTIST STATEMENT I believe that art has the power to transform, heal, and connect us. Through my art, I aspire to foster resilience in others. To encourage a desire to explore their emotional landscapes and find solace in the beauty and complexity of life. In my pursuit of creating abstract art, I aim to capture the essence of human emotions and offer a source of joy, grounding, and peace amidst the chaos and overstimulation of our modern lives. Through my use of vibrant colors and expressive marks, I strive to create a visual language that resonates with the human spirit. For me, creating something beautiful is not just an end in itself but also a means of expressing my deepest emotions, processing my personal experiences, and finding healing. As I pour my heart and soul into each painting, I can forge a deep connection with the viewer while strengthening my own emotional resilience and finding a sense of peace and clarity. My process is intuitive, without a predetermined outcome. As I paint, I respond to what I see on the canvas, adding and obliterating layers to achieve a balance between spontaneity and control, chaos and harmony. I draw inspiration from the gestural paintings of the Abstract Expressionists but also incorporate elements of Color Field painting to create a sense of luminosity and depth. By building up layers of color, gestural marks, and texture, it creates depth and complexity in my work. Each stroke is a response to the evolving composition, guiding it toward its fullest expression. BIOGRAPHY Paulette Insall (b. 1972) is a painter who lives and works in Tucson, Arizona.
