About The Artwork

Color work is a passion that animates my world. I could almost taste the color as it developed throughout this piece. There is a quality of luminescence that is visible with good display lighting. With a spotlight, this painting comes alive with purple and deep blue hues shimmering and dancing with each other. It is always hard for me to put into words "the story" behind my paintings. They are a felt endeavor, not one that can be described in words. Someone told me that it is false humility to say that I can't take credit for the work. So be it! The honest truth is that it comes through me. It develops itself in many ways. Hours can be spent discovering the nuance and color shifting in this painting. It is one that cannot be "pinned down" or described with certainty. It can only be observed and enjoyed. It tends to elude the grasp of the intellect and engage the imagination. Acrylic painting, with its quick drying time, allows me to create with clear, bright color and continue to work while I am in "the zone" in a way that the slow drying process of oil paints cannot. Hanging wire is attached to the back of the gallery wrapped canvas. The piece is finished with Liquitex Gloss Medium and Varnish. The edges are painted with the mood and colors of the face of the painting. It is signed.

I am a Texas artist and have painted for most of my 71 years, being from a family of artists. My mother's youngest sister, aunt Patsy, spent a lot of time with me, guiding and encouraging me, and I credit her for my passion for art. She painted under the name of "von." When she died in August of 2018, I began placing "von" somewhere on the face of each painting as an acknowledgment of her role in my artistic endeavors. My inspirations come from my home environment in Texas. Things that I have taken for granted all my life are now frequent subjects for art. Mesquites, cactus, old barns and shacks, windmills, wooden fence posts, wildflowers and the like are favorite subjects. I am a colorist, and I enjoy using color to give new life to otherwise fading beauty. In addition to color, I strive for dimension, movement, depth and unusual perspective.
