Valerie Lennon
"I am an
artist. I am a conceptional expressionist. I am a painter that creates my ideas
through color, shape, and composition. My artistic strength is my choice and use
of color. I spread these colors on my canvas using varying values and shape and
line. I use the paint transparent and opaque to create these shapes and planes.
As I enter the creative exploration of painting I think about varying brush
strokes, juicy application of paint and sizzling complements of color.
In the beginning I think little of my subject, losing myself in this very
challenging process. All of these concepts help me to create my figurative
florals and landscapes, which are unique to me. My figurative paintings are
stories, memories, and moments in time. I am inspired by Matisse who spoke to
these moments in his masterpieces with features not being the important part of
painting. I let you, the observer, be a part of the creative process using your
unique imagination.
I want my paintings to give joy, humor, and happiness. I want to feel these
emotions upon viewing the art in my home. "
