The Art of Mary Harman
When the Circus Leaves Town
" To paint is not merely to choose a motif and get it down on canvas in a style that counts only as evidence of the artist’s personality. When she paints, the artist guides her visual thought through a range of possibilities: speculating, revising, and speculating further until a resolution emerges. The finished painting will bear traces of her character, inevitably, but, more than that, it will show us her way of being in the world." |
