Artist’s Statement Jane Feigenson 114 Floral St Newton Highlands, MA 02461 617-630-0999
I am inspired by the complexities and humor of life. My process is long and slow and I create through the use of layering, texturing, colors and random materials, and am drawn to bold, vibrant colors. For me, life is about connecting and balance. I paint with emotion, and want to connect with the viewer by breaking the rules and creating surprise . Beyond the color and the element of surprise, I seek to maintain a sense of serenity so that my work is exhilarating but not disturbing.
Each of us has something to say. I have found my voice through my creative life. It is up to the viewer to interpret the message.
