LISA SAMALIN

What I've come to know as an artist is to paint what I love. It's been a journey. I have made art from many places within myself at different times. Early on it was often from anger, fear, outrage, despair, and that's a valid thing to do. And after a lifetime as an artist, I've arrived here, where if I don't love what I am looking at, I have no business painting it. Painting is an act of love now.
