Joan Gallagher
Artist Statement
I seek to express both energetic and tranquil moments in my paintings. I am inspired by the transience of nature: its steadfast, unpredictable strength and beauty.
The ocean, with its ever-changing moods, stormy grace, and constant ebb and flow, is my favorite muse.
Most of my works are abstract landscapes and floral-inspired works. I work primarily in cold wax and oil and through this medium, I explore my connection to the natural environment, interpret and express my personal observations and enjoy being able to engage and inspire my viewers.
