Artist Statement<\/h3>\n<p>&#8220;I live on Vashon and so am inspired by what I see around me.  I paint the ferries, scenes of the beach, and the madrona trees in my yard.  I am interested in dramatic lighting&#8211;I look for the sunlit passages through the woods, fog and mist, late afternoon light turning the madrona trunks orange and red, moonlight reflected on the water.  I paint in response to something I see, and I hope you will be captures by the sense of light in my pieces.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"parent":269,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-5583","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!--
