Stephanie Rose
I live in Wyoming - a place where life is shaped by harsh climatic conditions. My paintings are songs about the swiftly changing and sublime nature of this vast land, and to the tenacious spirit it engenders. My work crosses the borders between representational and abstract expression; at times my colors and images from the more realist works appearing in the abstract paintings. Painting is a process of weaving together observation, emotion and memory. When unexpected connections occur, coherent visual statements emerge, sparking awe in both the making and viewing of my paintings. Painting brings purpose to my life. I paint to understand my place in nature and share my story. Painting quiets my soul and opens me up to the wonderment of the natural world.
