Artist Statement:
When creating my original oil paintings, I really pay attention to texture…drippy glazes, brush marks, chunky impasto…it all comes together for an energetic surface texture. Muah! My favorite!
One of my current artistic goals is to suggest a scene rather than describe it. I want to take you to a place, but not fully describe everything…leaving room for imagination to fill in the gaps. Art, like life, is more enjoyable when shared.

MIDWEST ARTIST
I was born and raised in Wisconsin and now live in Minnesota. Even though I've lived in the Midwest all my life, the beauty of the landscape still takes my breath away. When you look at my paintings, you will notice that where I live inspires most of my work. I might be biased, but I think that I live in the most beautiful area in the world!
About my techniques
This short video is about my love of texture and how I create it in my paintings. They say that magicians never gives away their secrets…well, good thing I’m not a magician, because I totally share my “secret” techniques in this video.
Fun Fact: My son produced this video for me. He’s nearly done with his degree in “Digital Media Production.” It was really fun collaborating with him on this project! Check out his work here.
Maybe not stylish…but definitely warm! And that means a lot to a Minnesota artist in winter!
Why I Paint en Plein Air:
When painting on location, a sense of urgency to capture the fleeting moment drives split-second, intuitive movements that strip away all but my soul's reaction to the surroundings. The colors and values are more complex and intricate than what a camera can pickup. My hope is that in the quick-flow painting of the moment, all the rich sensations of the experience embed into the canvas--the sounds, smells and feeling of the place. -Naomi
