Special Instructions

Paula Ogier Artist Statement:


I paint scenes in the natural and manmade worlds. I’m interested in how these worlds feel energetically as well as how they interact with each other. Using color, line, and pattern to express the emotional story of a moment in time in a particular setting, I think of my works as love poems to life. 



As a digital painter, I work with a stylus on a large monitor. I make both abstract and representational marks to develop the atmosphere and structures in my scenes. I create layer upon layer of these elements, experimenting with their placement in relation to one another. My artworks invite the viewer to see the wondrous in the mundane.
