Artist Statement: Finding Depth Why do I paint the ocean? I was asking the question repeatedly. The answer came to me out of the blue, while painting deep water. It felt familiar. As though I knew it all along, and had only forgotten it for a while. The answer is this: The process of painting ocean makes me joyful and calm. Centered. Like meditation. Like therapy. Making art for art sake is the purpose. It is deep, yet so simple. BIO: Based in Nova Scotia, Canada and having lived near the ocean all her life; the coast is a constant source of inspiration for Kimberley Eddy’s art.
