Veronica's Biog |
|
Veronica Knowles' Artist Statement - I have always been concerned with painting the things closest to me, my family, our animals, and the gardens and landscape around the house. All the things with which I am most familiar. I find that it takes me a long time to physically start a painting. The light must be just right for me to achieve the effect I want. Therefore, I can be thinking about a subject for up to two years before I begin but once it is underway. I work very rapidly, a necessary thing when light is so ephemeral and diverse, leaving little time for contemplation. |
