This Side of the Mystery - Perspectives from The Artist's RoadThis Side of the Mystery
Art is the increasing effort to compete with the beauty of flowers— and never succeeding. - Marc Chagall These words from Chagall strike a note as I prepare for my exhibition titled, The Side of the Mystery. It is a privilege to be an artist, to live in the country and to immerse myself in the Nature all around me that provides glimpses and delights of dazzling beauty. My work is to whisk away the buzzing bees of distraction in my head, to see beyond the clatter, to listen, to honor, to celebrate the beauty and to try to translate these impressions and feelings into paint.
For those of you unable to join us at the exhibition opening at the Cider Gallery in Lawrence, KS, you can visit my website, Ann Trusty Fine Art, to see some of the paintings included. A catalog accompanies the show and is available here: |
