ARTISTS STATEMENT

OK. I DID NOT get a Grant/Loan for a new roof because I still have a bank loan (income-to-debt-ratio factors) so I just listed my house for sale and will move deeper into Kansas where the art galleries are.....this winter! Burr! I'll keep this website going even though I have no mobile phone and I have NO social media so no one visits my website anyway. Additionally, my canvases are taped between cardboard so I won't be entering any online shows until after I've moved and set up my art studio.

more about me:

I've been painting abstractly for over 55 years and actually began it in grade school. My grade school art teacher, Mrs. Reynolds, used to push her grocery cart full of art supplies to each of our homerooms and one day she informed me: "No Jerri, the sky is always blue and grass is always green" after a tempera paint project. After four years of private, group art lessons while I was married in the 70's, my genius art teacher taught us to SEE "space through patterns" which broke my flat space style I began at sixteen. I've developed my personal style ever since. Had I not been a self-employed house painter for 31 years in Colorado AND if I'd have been a social media star, perhaps I'd be selling. But, nope . . . not yet.

thank you for visiting my website.
