Artist Statement
Corinne’s paintings are intimate vingettes of solitude and nature. Drawing on her own experiences, she creates paintings with the goal of better understanding and communicating the ways we construct relationships to nature. Her work explores human vulnerability to the elements and how this results in awe and control of the natural world. She uses color and composition to build controlled depictions of transformative elements of nature such as fire, water, and storms.
