inspired by her travels thru new zealand, coral's work experienced a profound shift. has changed direction. combining simplicity with a soft color palette, lively brushstrokes and texture her acrylic on canvas landscapes has a dreamlike peaceful quality. the paintings are fresh, accessible, arresting, and inviting.
i began my artistic career by working on paper and canvas using watercolor, acrylic, colored pencil and graphite. in 2000 i felt inspired to take a sculpting class and my work moved quickly in this new and exciting direction. the result of that inspiration has been that all of the work that i do now is sculptural. always passionate about animals i wanted to show them respect i have always felt while simultaneously maintaining a sense of play and adventure. i soon discovered that plastilene clay to is the perfect medium to depict birds and mammals impressionistically and often with a touch of whimsy. my goal is to give the viewer a sense of movement that is frozen in time. recently i have been embellishing some of the clay forms with beads and shells and they lend the bronze sculptures finished with this texture a lighthearted and unique quality. approximately half of my current pieces are created using the clay for bronze medium.
