Artist Statement for Lacey Christiansen
|
|
|
My work examines my everyday experiences and emotions. It is my way of understanding my feelings, working through problems and generally celebrating life’s challenges and triumphs. I am also a dreamer (both REM and DAY). I find that much of the time my inspiration finds me through my dreams. These elements play off of each other and join together unexpectedly. In that way my art is all connected, it is about life and emotion.
To create my paintings I often begin with little more than the impulse to create. I then reflect upon the current events in my life, my dreams, and my emotions to find more specific inspirations, concepts, or ideas. Eventually I sketch out the idea or experiment with colors, analyze subject matter, set up materials and paint. Once I get going the process looks something like: Paint. Stop. Think. Paint some more. Get overly emotional. Repeat until painting is finished.
