Heidi Lorenz
Artist Statement:
My desire to paint is rooted in the events of my life. Family, friends, animals, views along the way. Even a mundane moment becomes notable when the light touches it just so. My goal is to represent a feeling I once had and to develop my skill and understanding of two-dimensional representation. If in turn, this touches others, then I consider that a great artistic accomplishment. This exemplifies the idea that we’re not alone in our creative pursuit. Studio work is a solitary endeavor, yet we are together, all of us, on a wonderful journey! When that creative undertaking reaches out affecting someone else in their life and on their journey, it provides a beautiful sense of connectedness! Sharing my art is an absolute pleasure.
