As an Aspen tree matures, the oldest branches blacken and die and eventually fall from the tree leaving a scar on the trunk most often in the shape of an eye. I see the trees in the midst of our environment as sentinels and physical stalwarts. I think of the scars as eyes, watchful and protective. I notice the scars that line the length of the trunk, and think of them as markers of wisdom attained only through growth. I am painting a series of Aspen trees, observing them through the seasons. Their stark quietness in the Winter and the attention grabbing fluttering leaves in the Summer. In noticing them, they serve as reminders to me of my own progressions of my life.

United States
Dorothea Cheney is a contemporary realist painter currently living west of the Grand Tetons in Tetonia, Idaho. Her work is included in both private and corporate collections throughout the United States. Like a diary, my paintings are visual translations, re-creations of a moment of perception, an emotional encounter, a simple daily event that startled or awakened me into the "here and now". I am intrigued with the idea of the energy of emotions, both positive and negative, and what that energy might look like. As I would write in a diary, the emotions that inspire me are my own and I thrive on the process of discovery and understanding of my reactions to them. For me, painting allows this discovery.
