Mary Guzowski, Paintings

 

Painting is an opportunity to witness and engage the changing qualities and moods of the seasons.  For me, it is a type of meditation that draws on my direct experience and observations of nature.  I often use photographs of places I have visited in Minnesota as a point of departure. The paintings are developed “in season” and throughout the year.  They are intended to capture an ever changing spirit and quality of time and place. 

 

These imagined landscapes are a vehicle to communicate my impressions of time as experienced in my day to day life.  Painting keeps me connected with the ever changing cycles of nature.
