Victoria Veedell:  “Landscapes” - oil on canvas, wood panel, paper

My paintings are like memories, suggesting landscapes not necessarily seen but felt. They are an emotional response to the environment.  I want to share the way I see and feel when I’m out in nature.  My fascination with the way light affects color and atmosphere keeps me excited to continue to explore and paint new landscapes.

My inspiration comes from my travels both near and far. Travel has become an important component in my work as it allows me to observe and compare gradients of color, light and atmosphere in different geographic locations. These become the memory of place and source of inspiration. I make all of my oil paintings in the studio on canvas, paper or wood panel.

Crescendo Gallery - Carol Duchamp:  “Meanderings” - watercolor and fluid acrylic paint

I am a spontaneous painter working wet-on-wet in the mediums of watercolor and fluid acrylic paint. The expressive quality of my work invites the viewer on a pilgrimage into the unknown. My process highlights the freedom of the unforeseen; the magic of beautiful passages that ‘paint themselves’, and the resonance of wordless experience.

Each painting is its own song, leitmotif, jazz improvisation. Usually it is when a painting is complete that I can begin to decipher the nature of its source and meaning. I do not plan my paintings nor do I know what movement, instinct, gesture or choice of color will arise. The shapes and meanings arrive in search of me, painting themselves in vibrant color.
