I have been told that I am a very sensitive person. I suppose that is true; through my many travels and meetings with different people, I have noticed that the first and most profound reaction is the way these places and people make me feel. After almost ten years of painting I have come around to the realization that the way my paintings make you feel is my ultimate concern. I am not trying to paint a place or a person but a feeling. How did that sunset on a winter's eve make me feel. Standing in that field, with the hot colors of the sun mixing with the cool colors of winter. That and many other impressions and emotions are what I am now trying to convey with water, paint, brush and paper. In the next few weeks I will be adding pieces that I think convey a feeling, hopefully bringing to you the art lover my feelings on a certain subject. Whether you feel the same is not my goal, to make you feel is. So why not drop me a note at michele.congdon@gmail.com and let me know what you felt when viewing my work.
