ARTIST STATEMENT
Brenda is a mixed media and fine art digital artist. When starting a piece, she often makes color choices reflecting her mood. Seldom visualizing the ending she lets the process unfold. To create her mixed media collages, Brenda uses a combination of watercolors, inks, metallic pens, painted fabric and torn pieces of artwork. With her fine art digital works, she often starts with a photo and combines images of her artwork. She transforms the piece by adding textures, colors, digital painting and then experiments using mixed media on the printed image and reprints it again. Brenda’s use of dramatic colors defines her work. She especially loves the passion of the reds and oranges. Often viewers feel her energy and spirit and in turn, connect to their own. Through her vibrant colors, Brenda conveys optimism and the strength to persevere when dealing with life's challenges. She is a strong advocate for the healing power of expressive arts.
