Artist Statement for Lynn Rupe

Statement
I consider myself a non-objective artist but often end up creating work that has identifiable images and themes. In a way, I am painting puzzles that have no need to be “solved”— images that resist straightforward interpretation but nevertheless invite the viewer to participate.
The work represented by the enclosed images is a series of acrylic paintings on panels. I often switch the panels around as I paint, changing the order and orientation to find new configurations. The paintings are usually about 7 feet tall and about 12 feet in width.
My work on a particular piece is complete when I feel engaged with it -- no longer as the painter but as the viewer. I love paintings that give me somewhere to go, something to do—paintings that capture my attention and challenge me to make my own discoveries. I love paintings that possess a compelling charisma and make it hard for me to walk away.
Although it isn’t my goal to create images that speak a precise language, I believe that my paintings offer enough connections and references to give the viewer a point of entry.
