 Joanne Miller Rafferty

Joanne Miller Rafferty's splashes of color and quick line convey not just a lively style and pure technique, bu her intense joy in her art and deep appreciation for the abstractions found in the many forces of land, sky and sea.  Plato spoke of beauty and ideal form, abstracted into classical proportions.  These paintings present absracted forms refined into an ideal.

Rafferty builds from horizontal schemes and creates visual islands engulfed in color, handmade paper and golden string.  You never know what will wash ashore.
