“My work seems to be on a very fast evolution & my subjects, medium and even my style seem to adapt to what I am seeing in a particular place.

The one constant in my work, since the beginning, is this quest to capture & hold the energy for other people to experience in their own way.

Positive, happy energy & interesting light is what I am drawn to.”

ANN SHOGREN

Ann’s harmonious use of color affects the whole feeling of the piece.

She chooses more variation in tone and contrast depending on the subject. Ann uses color and texture to balance the tone in each piece.

Her goal is for the final energy to fill the space around the work.

“As long as I pay attention, my art definitely tells me the instant the statement is made. I have learned not to make one more brushstroke beyond the point a painting tells me it is complete. I think that sensing when a painting is finished is the key to making interesting, fresh art.”
