Gretchen Hansen – Tunnel of Love

Description

Artist Statement

I endeavor through my artwork to channel the spirit of childhood wonder, to observe and honor its essence in ephemeral moments of play and possibility before they fade. From our open, incomplete beginnings, formative experiences in the world give shape to our inner worlds-hopes, dreams, adventures-in impressionistic bursts. As my art proceeds to exalt the beautiful imperfection of the real, dappled with the dangers and enchantments of children’s stories, legends and fairytales, my artistic path remains illuminated by its North Star: “It’s all child’s play.”
