A stunning solo exhibition of Loraine’s favorite places in soft pastel.
As you navigate this exhibition, you’ll find yourself immersed in Loraine’s reflections on these remote places. It’s a tribute to the enduring connection between humanity and the untamed wilderness, a testament to our responsibility to protect and cherish it.
Join us in celebrating the boundless and the wild. Allow these remarkable works of art to leave an imprint on your soul, and may they serve as enduring reminders of the wild places that shape our world and our spirits.
Artist Statement
Remote Places. Vast, boundless places. Places where one sees an endless horizon or where the sky and the land become one. Places where one can see the push, thrust and power inherent in the land. Places where one can almost see infinitely. My reaction to these places lingers in my thoughts and in my art.
I feel fortunate that I can visit these remote and isolated areas, study the dynamics of what stands before me and use my knowledge of the elements of art to construct a composition that represents my consciousness, experience, and understanding of the value and essence of the place.
