Sometimes paintings know what they want to be. These paintings seem to paint themselves and they are always the best paintings in my body of work. This painting called "Stormy Inlet" fits this narrative. Most years I travel to the New England shore. These memories exist in my subconscious and sometimes appear in my paintings. This painting derives from my memories of the coast of New England and climate of our planet. It depicts cleansing power of water and the dangers of global warming.

Catherine Picard-Gibbs- Through my paintings, I have become attentive to the splendid drama of my everyday world; how light hangs on a tree or building, the movement or stillness of water passing under a bridge, the mystery of a tunnel, a church interior or the grit of a train yard. My work is contemporary but takes cues from painters of the past. Archives
