"For me, painting is a meditation; the physical act of applying paint to the canvas with a brush (or fingers), moving paint, mixing colors, playing with sculpting the image. It's a balancing act keeping the finished painting in mind while letting go enough to get there. This is having you cake and eating it, too. Painting with friends, plein air or figure drawing is another joy on this journey and the icing on the cake!"
Welcome to the Artist In Residence Co-op Blog Spot. We are a collective art gallery in Enosburg, Vermont that exhibits the work of over 40 local Vermont artists. Each month, a group of our members are selected as featured artists to showcase in the gallery foyer. This blog is an additional space to feature and discuss these artists and their work.
