” Painting, for me, is a process that is always ongoing and changing. I’m getting to know my muse, elusive though she may be and hopefully myself. I don’t enter competitions because I don’t think they’re good for me. I lose either way. If I win, I then have to win…again. If I lose or am not accepted, my confidence slumps. I don’t have gallery representation because I’m not sure I want it. I don’t have a long list of awards and I don’t belong to any notable organizations or societies. I just like to paint.” – Suzanne Berry

I now present to you, the very talented Jantina Peperkamp. Oh what a treat! All for you.

” My approach to sculpture begins with the observation of the figure, an exploration of the gorgeous nuance that clay offers the artist, and the opportunity to play with light and shadow. With a background in illustration, my vision is disciplined to search for line that graces form, hair and fabric –to capture the quality of watercolor washes– to reveal how light creates drama. You will see a less orthodox beauty in my personal art works, as I try to challenge, provoke and entertain.” -Alice Simpson
