I’m a student of life; I see beauty in nature, people and the world around me, small details and complete view. Without the ability to actualize an idea or concept, art would not exist. My work is a constant search for the best way to interpret the ideas that I have about myself and the world I live in. I do not limit myself to one medium, style, or concept.
Inspiration and ideas change. My knowledge changes and grows. Each piece I create is simultaneously an extension from the past, where I’ve come from and what I’ve learned, as well as a preview of the future, where I’m going.
I do not classify myself as just a photographer, as some might think from looking at my work. I am a sculptor, a painter, a photographer, an artist.
If a viewer stops for just a moment to view and reflect on a photograph, a photo collage or a painting I have created, then I have succeeded in my work.

Beautiful portrait -I am learning how to work with colors in the face-getting the dimension of the nose is hard for me! I really like the effects of your last painting best.
I love them all! Your painting expresses so much and your style is so strong and sculptural. And as Andrea says…each one has something for us. I really MUST do some painting again (first to clean out the studio I filled with my father’s stuff – the important “stuff” I couldn’t part with ” then I will get to the paint. The easel is waiting ready in my sunroom though:) And Hiiiiiii to Tinka h555555555555!!:)))
I should paint too, I have a exhibition in September, and no new work since April…. Tinka purrs happily to your regards. We should come up with a theme and show each other the out come.
Love your layers you placed on top of the face – well done!
These are simply amazing, Ritva … I love each on it’s own merits. Beautiful and creative …

So pretty.
