Artist Statement

 

At the Heart of my Paintings is the Earth, the Land


Peggy’s colorful oil and acrylic paintings are often of the landscapes of Northern California. “I love the earth and all its colors, shadows and shapes.  As a young girl I spent hours in nature just observing and climbing high up in the trees to see the movement of the sun and gaze at the constellations. I was a girl scout and worked towards all kinds of nature badges. Now, in Sonoma, I stop often to paint or take photos of the blue or gray skies, the vineyards, mustard fields, and the cows!  And I am most passionate about our rolling hills – be they red, green, golden or brown.

‘Yes, we have a beautiful Mother.’  These words by Jennifer Breezen, in her album Praises for the World, inspire and uplift me.  It is my hope that my art will bring joy to others and convey the amazing beauty that is all around us here in Northern California and beyond.”

 PEGGY DOES COMMISSIONED PAINTINGS OF FAVORITE SCENES!

In working with others to co-create their dream or vision, her own work has expanded into new venues!

In 2010 she did several large (up to 4' X 5' ) landscape paintings by commission for friends and art buyers.

Peggy did a commissioned piece for The Trestle Renovation Committee of Petaluma.  She painted  the "finished" project ( a painting revealing how the Trestle would look after renovation). This was used in making an appeal for funding for the renovation of the Petaluma Trestle.  Her work has appeared in the local papers.

A  painting depicting one of the Giants' World Series pitchers, Tim Lincecum, has found popularity in Sonoma county as it hangs in several restaurants and galleries.  I, like so many other fans in the Bay area, enjoyed our team going to the World Series.  I admire Tim for his ability to concentrate in impossible situations, so I was drawn to capture this on canvas.
