ARTIST STATEMENT:
Art has always been a passionate essential in Margo Mead's life. Influenced by her extensive study of Western and Asian art personal images have emerged. Using watercolor and black ink on rice paper she explores landscape. She is poised between descriptive realism and calligraphic abstraction through the bold balance of color, form, dimension and line. Western color concepts often appear as atmospheric washes and calligraphic line are suggestive of Chinese painting, as well as, neo-cubistic structuring. She brings her experiences to a creative collective unity by merging cultures as her spirit flies with her brush.
