WELCOME to my online portfolio of art that is inspired by the serenity of nature and the unconditional love of animals. I hope you enjoy what you see and will continue to visit here plus at my website https://www.apurpleleaf.com.
ARTIST STATEMENT:
I love walking through the woods searching for a glimpse of nature consisting of a little something extra, what I call 'a purple leaf' or inspiration, for my natural still life colored pencil artworks. I am fascinated by natural objects composed by nature, time and conditions that reveal this uniquely beautiful but seldom seen natural world. The aesthetic beauty of leaves, diverse in types, shapes and colors, combined with elements of earth, water and stone, are my purple leaf and the reason I look forward to discoveries found with each and every step I continue to take with nature. Frank Lloyd Wright said it best: 'Study nature, love nature, stay close to nature. It will never fail you.'
While the foliage of woodland trees keeps me returning to the natural world, it's the beautiful organic lines, the rich earth colors, the dramatic lighting, and the amazing textures that keep me there. I love to hear the sound of leaves rustling in the wind, the smell of moist soil, and the feeling of tranquility that comes while walking through the woods. Nature does not stand still but I capture special moments of beauty, of absolute wonder, and that serenity of nature in my still life artworks.
