Painter Vanessa Michalak lives in the Boston area. Her work recently appeared in New American Paintings Issue 110.
“Ideas about escapism and adventure are explored… Unexpected color and inventive brushwork blend representation with abstraction, constructing worlds that are dreamlike yet familiar… Figures move through forests and viewers are forced to make their way through overgrown paths. Particular structures within the landscape allude to impermanence. The paintings become a reflection of my inner restlessness and my longing to reconnect with nature.” – artist statement
