Artist Statement
Shelley Lowenstein is a keen observer of people and places. She has a passion for capturing moments in time, scenes of people engaged in the casual interactions that course through everyday life. She focuses on gesture and body language, and delights in exploring the relationships between her figures (alone vs. lonely), how they look at one another, how they stand or sit in relation to one another, incorporating all these impressions onto the canvas. Using the interplay of light and shadow, she paints scenes that hit the pause button on the hustle of a typical day.
In short, she tells stories.
