Description |
A portrait of a woman. Her full form is cut off at the knees, the lower half of the scene starting at the top of the canvas. There is a floral painting behind her, square outlines where canvases were once painted scatter the floor. This piece was displayed as part of the 2024 exhibition "Selfographies". / "I use creation like a journal and I record my experiences in images. I'm interested in how we process the challenges in life and I explore that with my painting. I do this with landscapes that represent an idyllic version of life, one devoid of the challenges, often using color and repetitive and visible brushstrokes to emphasize the vibrancy of this imagined space. " Statement from Sitter, Nancy Andruk Olson. |
