Artist Statement:
"Imagination reveals itself in
the balance of opposites: the
general with the concrete, the
idea with the image, the sense
of novelty and freshness with
the old and familiar,
enthusiasm and feeling with
steady self-possession."
Coleridge
I couldn't have said it

Artist Reviews:
THE DENVER POST Dec 1999 -
Glenn Giffin
"Subject matter and approach
vary widely. Victoria Ekelund
offers "November Morning," an
oil rich with the mood of a
California vineyard, but
nearby is a watercolor as
unembellished as a botanical
study. Without looking at the
signature, one might not think

It was in my blood. Even as a child I had to draw. |

| Your Personal Biography |
Born in a military hospital on the east coast. Moved to Germany when I was preschool age and lived there for three years, then moved to France where we stayed 5 years and then back to Germany until I left home and moved to Colorado to attend the Colorado Institute of Art. I have lived in Denver, CO ever since, but still travel back to Europe as often as time and money allows. I took time to raise my 2 children and used less toxic mediums until my children were in grade school. I then switched to oils and have stayed with oils as my main mode of expression. I continue to learn and explore and grow as an artist. |
