Shorelines

A series of paintings by Leelanau County, Michigan artist, Angela Saxon. I begin my paintings direct from the landscape, focusing on expressive movements in nature—the sweep of a hill, the patterns in water, the drama of a sky. The paintings explore the way in which we perceive what we see around us, leading a viewer to discover intimate details in a landscape that might otherwise be not realized; to create a sense awareness. This series is about controlled spontaneity.
