Melissa Post van der Burg - Augusta, ME

Painter
"Murray's Bagels"
Oil on Panel
16"x20"
Artist Statement: "I have always thought of painting as a form of prayer—not in a religious sense, but in the process itself: finding a quiet place to work, carving out the time needed, going deeper into my own awareness of what it means to be living. Why am I intrigued enough to paint one object or view or person, and not another? It's always more than just capturing a moment, or a likeness. There is something deeply relational about the painter, the object and the painting that keeps me working. I think, ultimately, I am painting my life--what it means to me, to be alive at this particular time. I hope I convey a deep sense of gratitude. As a self-taught painter, I am always learning, always investigating ways to move forward. Art, in general, is a language, and as such, we who communicate through this language are always learning new ways of "saying" what we need to say. But, of course, we need 'listeners'—those who appreciate and take the time to look closely and search out meaning and intent. To those kind souls, I am eternally grateful." --Melissa Post van der Burg

Artist Statement: "Making art. To explore—other "worlds" through visual expression. To be led—by my imagination. To follow—the unexpected. To allow—the imagery to come through me.
