Monica Nask
"After twenty years of living in New York City I moved to the coast of New Jersey. I loved walking around the city, taking in the buildings, the people, the hustle and the bustle. I still love walking. It’s my thing. I want to tell the story of what I see around me.
With palette knives, I start to lay paint thick across the canvas. Layering and scraping, creating what I have seen with what I have felt. I like to push the boundaries between realism and abstraction, using broad fields of color to create depth. I continue to add elements that will tell a narrative. This could be people, trees, the sun, the sea, it could be certain colors to convey a mood. I always want to create works where the viewer travels with me."
