My Art Work : REALISM

When considering my own personal art work, I would say that it falls into the category of Realism. I have always found the beauty in depicting life as it actually exists to the human eye. Specifically through my fascination with glass and light reflection, I strive to paint what I see as accurately as possible. I don't believe that art necessarily has to have a deep meaning to be successful. I have always had difficulty expressing myself through my art. Rather, I enjoy illustrating aspects of life that I find beautiful. I have always admired artists that have the ability to paint in a photo-realistic style. While my style does not necessarily resemble photographs, I feel that I have captured the nature of my subject matter as it exists before my very eyes. I have always been inspired by artists such as Janet Fish and Audrey Flack who successfully depict life through vibrant colors and details.
