VIRGINIA PEACOCK Exhibition:
Room e'nuf
Artist Statement:
A self-taught exhibiting artist in New York City, I met many of America's top artists at the time including Alex Katz, Wolf Kahn, and Julian Schnabel. It was then that I realized how much work is involved in creating art - beyond a sprinkle of 'magic' here and there it comes down to the discipline of creating something beautiful which takes time and effort.
More recently working from Houston, Texas, my artwork has welcomed a change both personally and professionally. The Texas big skies with a ‘can-do’ attitude have recharged my artistic batteries and I find there’s ’room enuf’ for my own unique style. Color has become my friend, and most current work includes both jewelry and 2D images.
Within my artistic sensibility, I strive to combine the elegance of George Stubbs or John Singer Sargeant with the modernism of Matisse’s cutouts and the vibrancy of Cartier’s spectacular patterning.
Love what I do, hope it shows.
