ARTIST STATEMENT

Well after much work and reflection, I think I may have come up with an Artist Statement that I am happy to use for the time being. I would appreciate any feedback, comments, suggestions, etc.

Painting, collage, sculpting, felting and creating with found objects are all passions of mine. Creativeness is like breathing to me; it nurtures my soul and gives me endless hours of joy.

Wherever I am, I find myself observing my surroundings with an “artist’s eye”, just about anything I see is assessed for possible material for a future painting, sculpture or wall hanging. When I walk around my bush property or along the beach, I collect seed pods, feathers, sea shells, broken glass and interesting pieces of wood or rocks or leaves.

My practice is an ongoing personal journey for me and I am still trying to find my way. Having a diverse range of interests means that I am always exploring different mediums and subjects.

  1. Congratulations! Katrina on writing an artist statement. This is great. The beauty of artist statements is that they evolve and change as we do. From one explorer to another. Candyxx
