“Portal”

Visual poetics that narrate the luminous beauty & grace descending upon us at this transcendent time.

In this collection of New Work by Aondrea Maynard there is a dialogue between The Artist and The Natural World that brings to life an inner exploration and evolution; and as the butterfly emerges from its chrysalis, out of the darkness … the light is born.

Modern interpretations of Nature, Inspired by old romantic European paintings that honor old world sensibilities, the poetry of memory, a calling on the lineage of wisdom found in nature, the history of our humanity and an embracing of the mysterious to reveal a space of serenity that is ever expansive, transformative and inclusive.

In lush layers of oil painted on wood panels, the elegant qualities of light and shadow are expressed and the emotionally evocative power of color explored to present a sensual experience as seduction, invitation and sanctuary.
