ARTIST'S STATEMENT

Jane E. Silverman

Ever since I used the pieces of my father's old violin to create a three-dimensional painting, there is no one type of media that I haven't explored. Everyday items, from balsa wood, string, tree limbs, sand, even old frisbees have blended in with oils and acrylics to create three-dimensional structures of human objects, buildings, a cityscape, an ocean view. My most recent works celebrate the marriage of vibrant acrylic colors with other mixed media. My drawings highlight intricate details that grace the storefronts, buildings and views of the Hudson River in my hometown of Hoboken, N.J.
