JoyceNorden-AbstractArtist


My abstract images are responses to nature's visual beauty and transformative power for both the artist and the viewer. Growing up in New England, the brilliant reds, oranges,yellow and blue--as well as the soaring, curving lines of trees and branches--influence the way I experience the world. My use of intense colors and multiple glazes allow me to explore the complex layers of life and the surprises that occur at the edges.

I am drawn to Fauve and Expressionist painters who used color and line to express their inner emotions, to explore landscapes in a non-traditional way, and to convey the "spiritual" in art.
