Gotham Painting

Creativity comes in many forms. The ability to transform a vision, an idea from your mind to canvas, paper, fabric, a meal, the garden--what a glorious process. Painting is pure joy. There is no angst, no darkness or struggle. Color, form, shapes and brushstrokes with no boundaries just as when we were children. View my art as it was created with joy. My paintings start with a selection of colors based upon how I am feeling and what strikes my fancy. Most pieces are not planned but develop as I begin to move the paint on the canvas. I use large brushes and palette knives so I don't get stuck with minute detail. The movement of the paint is so freeing and I often get lost in the process. I will stop, step back and look at the canvas. Often there are surprises--how did that stroke get there? I am joyously free when I work. Truly wondrous and from the heart.
