Hi Cherilynn

 

I like your statement, makes me want to see your work.  Just one thing, you have used the word ‘interlacing’ three times and it sounds a little repetitive, maybe you could think about using another word.

At the start of the second paragraph how about:

These observations are an integral part of my series of pastel mixed media paintings called “Essence”.  Working in a very intuitive manner I bring focus to the subtle nuance of color shifts or the complete tension created from pushing complementary colors.

Probably a dumb question but what is the difference between pastel mediums and then finally pastel?

Hi Drew

I feel I should start by saying it took me AGES to get an artist statement I was happy with! I only have a couple of minor comments and they are my own personal opinion so feel free to ignore if they don’t suit.

I would take the word ‘but’ out of ‘But I never know’. The sentence sounds stronger, more defined without it, like you like that part of the process.  I’m not sure about the ‘improvising’ part, to me it sounds like you are unsure of your artistry.  Would ‘I express specific feelings…..’ sound better? eg I express specific feelings through color and brush stroke, building even relationship between forms, against space, with line.
