About this collection: "IN CONTEXT"
Painting en plein air challenges the limitations of my perception. In the few seconds between looking from the landscape to the canvas, my brain has formed an imperfect short-term memory of that subject, as is true for any artist trying to translate the world without a photographic memory to support them. I use the lapses that occur between observing my subject and marking my canvas as invitations to invent color and space. I relish the opportunity to lay down a wildly bold pink or exaggerate a slant of light to the point of distortion. In this body of work, I am experimenting with limited palettes and compressed value ranges. Works by artists including Fairfield Porter, Susan Lichtman, and Brian Sindler have served as beacons in this exploration. It’s been exciting to see how much I can stretch–what I can say–within some tight color boundaries. Color & value exist in relativity, grays and neutrals make more saturated hues feel alive, and each painting is an exercise in building a unique context of color.
In the past, my practice was defined by the freedom to explore and paint landscapes en plein air, but the demands of new motherhood have made painting on location less accessible. In this season of my practice, I’m finding that my plein air and studio work can (and must) exist in the same body of work. The problems I stumble upon in the field can be investigated during a nap time studio session, and when I get overly precious in the studio, the urgency I feel while painting en plein air can help. These two areas of my work do not exist in isolation; they inform one another. The smaller paintings in this show (12” x 12” and 8” x 10”) were made on location at Wagon Hill Farm in Durham, NH. The larger ones (24” x 24” and 24” x 30”) were cultivated in the studio in response to my days outside.

Very well written. Very edifying. Very scriptural. What are the best books written on waiting on God’s timing and that God uses waiting that can bless us.

Great purchase!
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
This book was a gift to my grandmother for mothers day and it came in great quality! Although I have not read the contents of the book, it was not bent when delivered (like previous books Ive purchased) and it is good quality! The paperback texture is not smooth and it has some texture but it still feels good quality. As I flipped through it I noticed the scripture index which I was very happy by!! 10/10 and if you read it leave another review based on the contents of the book!!

Literally life changing
Format: Paperback
This is one of the best books I have ever read. I have just been through a difficult season of waiting and was not handling it well. I was doubting God in a way I haven't since I was in high school and descending into spiritual chaos. My friend read this book, and I saw it on her Goodreads and asked her about it. I read it this spring and it has fundamentally changed the way I see the world. It has given me an abiding trust in God. I will come back to this frequently in my life. It isn't about a particular kind of waiting (waiting for a spouse, for instance) but about the concept of waiting in general, so it is applicable to all seasons of life. I recommend it to all my friends in person, and even though I don't frequently write reviews, I cannot recommend this book highly enough, so I thought I'd share my thoughts. It also has reflection questions, so it could be great for a book study, as well as just for personal devotions. It has changed my heart and therefore my life and I am so grateful for God sending me this book. It's also a quality product, with nice paper and cover. All around amazing.
