Linda Armantrout Artist Statement

In the Power Image Series, I use the the form of the moving horse as a
metaphor for the power of God. My process includes meditation,
sketching, drawing, and color squares. I paint in the studio, mixing color
on the palette and brushing oil paint on large canvases. I manipulate line
to make energy visible. I manipulate color to make emotions visible.

The Glory Series is about the coexistence of the divine and the mundane.
Previously, I painted an immediate and spontaneous series of 5”x7” impressions
(Playing in the Key of Light). I used primed masonite board, and mixed
the colors with palette knife directly on the board. The 12”x12” Glory Series
is an explosion of those images with that technique and an expression
of my inner nature. The forms become abstracted by scale and deletion.
The color is perceptual.

I paint to make a connection to Source, to nature, and to others. Color is
my primary element. I am passionate about oil painting and pursuing
luminosity of color. As Kandinsky said: "A work of art consists of
two elements, the inner and the outer. The inner is the emotion in the
soul of the artist; this emotion has the capacity to evoke a similar emotion
in the observer."

Welcome.
