Raven & Sun

 

Meg Nicks

The intricate details of nature never cease to captivate me. 

Natureʼs flow and rhythms,
the endless interconnectivilty of natureʼs design and patterns, 

are purest inspiration.Wood grain flows like water, and water 

captures the mountains in reverse, pristine like a
mirror or turbulent and almost chaotic. 

The mountain environment looks solid, but is
infinitely changeable.

 

As much as I like to explore nature, I like to explore materials. 

The mountains with theirendless diversity are echoed by the 

incredible variety of materials available to us today.
Never before in the history of art, have so many art materials 

been so available at so affordable a cost. There is a painting 

by Michelangelo that was never finished because the patron 

never supplied the blue paint needed, and it was too 

expensive for the artist to buy himself. We have so many 

choices now that it can be hard to choose! I am excited by 

the many possibilities inherent in new media and materials.
