Donna Usher
Artist’s Statement
The “Meditation Paintings” are inspired by my journey to Australia to study Aborigine dot painting and my visual connection with the multitude of circular images found in nature. The painted orbs, spheres, circles and dots relate to microscopic cells, eggs sacs and to the black holes and galaxies found in deep space. The interaction of vibrant color within the paintings is used to evoke visual sensations of the sublime for the viewer to meditate on and renew the spirit. .
