BENEDETTI WATERMEDIA

Artist's Statement

I paint with watermedia, primarily fluid acrylics, in an aqueous manner, sometimes using collage, for landscape and earthforms in both nature oriented and contemporary abstract concepts. My paintings reflect a statement about the subject, not just an image. I paint with reactions to, and emotions about the inter-relatedness of everything in the universe; relationships between peoples, animals, plants and all of nature.
