After The Storm

Vision Statement

The vision behind this piece flows from a moment of awareness of how one experiences reality through
a subjective perspective. I was enthralled by the dramatic and colorful cloud formations I saw overhead after a violent storm passed over my hill and across the valley below. Artist that I am, what I felt most inspiring about that intense scene were the sumptuous velvety gray and pink clouds and I knew that I had to paint them as such. At the same time, however, as a female artist I felt a twinge of anxiety that perhaps the color scheme might be construed unfairly as being restrictively gender specific!!
