Donna McGee

Artist statement:

I try to impart a meditative quality with my paintings. I invite the viewer to let their eyes travel over the entire canvass and draw their own inspiration. Viewer reactions become part of my own muse. As I paint I do not start out with a clear vision, but I deliberate with each stroke and splash of color. The final product evolves until I think it is finished. Only then is it adorned with a title. It is my hope, that my paintings will evoke the viewer’s own memories and visions and she or he will apply their own titles and be able to say, “I’ve been here before.”
