Sharon Selene Field Watercolors
As a seventh-generation Mainer, the subjects of rocks, ledges,
woods, fields and shoreline appeal to me because of their permanence.
They are silent witnesses to the generations of people who have worked,
painted, climbed or visited to take in the scenery. I strive for my
paintings to be respectfully representational, thoughtful, and to
instill a sense of place. My intent is to encourage the viewer to notice
the beauty of that which will remain long after we are gone.
I
started painting flowers out of admiration for their pure color and
form. Flowers, like rocks, have fabulous edges, making them very
appealing subjects. I have long been a flower gardener and I find that
for me, gardening and painting are intertwined.
