Artist Statement for Valerie Leri
|
|
|
A strong element throughout my work, is light - both physical and spiritual - through a combination of realism and abstract.
My mission is to capture a sense of spontaneity, tranquility, and/or movement and energy through the interaction of colors and shapes. I paint with acrylics. Some of my work is interwoven with elements from nature such as bark, sand, stones, shells creating a partiuclar mood and giving the painting three dimensions.
I work more by feeling than technique, letting the painting in a sense "create iself" with myself as a conduit to the visual message, thus the end result is more about flow than form. To a limited extent I strive for effect but most often my efforts are toward lifting the veils of illusion to reveal the truth.
There is no right way to interpret my art. All of my work is inspired by the need to create exhilaration, inner joy and peace, both for myself and the view. Ultimately my art is an invitation "to dream."
