Artist Statement:
Artist’s Statement

My art is intuitive. I
usually need something to
trigger my imagination. I will
look around me for something
that clicks in me, and then
build my images on that. What
I see serves as a point of
departure for the works that
ensue.

Biggest Artistic Inspiration A couple of my professors were a huge influence on me and so were some trips I took to the Chicago Art Institute. I was literally bowled over by an exhibit of John Singer Sargent's work. The way he painted is what really got to me.I love the Art Institute and have seen many great exhibitions there. Their collection of Impressionists work has meant a lot to me. I especially like the color and light.When it comes to Chagall I must say I love the poetic quality of his painting. The color is exquisite and the idea that he painted what he felt and remembered and didn't really worry about what movement he belonged to. I like his independence. I guess my biggest artistic inspiration has been the exhibitions I've been blessed to view.
 
Why Did You Become An Artist not provided
 
Your Personal Biography I was born in Louisville, Ky. My maiden name is Alston. I graduated twice from Western Kentucky University. I owe a lot to the education I received there. I had wonderful professors and the artistic atmosphere of the school had a lasting impact. I have experimented with many different materials and am always searching for a way to be a better artist.I have exhibited mostly in Kentucky and Indiana. I have a studio in my home and am still trying to paint better. I taught school for many years in both high school and college. I now love to take classes.
