Northern Lakes Art Association June Art Show: Deneena Hughes

ARTIST STATEMENT: 

I find nothing more beautiful or inspirational than the equine form. It is a source of endless inspiration to me. I create art for more than just horse lovers, however. My art is for anyone who feels drawn to the pull of beautiful form, powerful presence, and timeless soul in one captivating subject matter.  My art is often a fusion of painting and poetry.  I see the equine form as pure poetry in flesh. To me, painting is poetry without words and poetry is painting that speaks. Sometimes the poem inspires the painting and other times the painting inspires the poem. When these come together I find a dynamic sweet spot in my creative expression.
