Victoria Veedell
In my paintings I explore how color and light affect space and the physical sense of place. My atmospheric landscape paintings capture the fleeting moments of light in nature. The root of my work is an emotional reaction to the environment, implying landscapes not necessarily seen but felt. I’ve been painting the landscape in one form or another for over 20 years. Wherever I go I see something that moves me, captures my attention and compels me to share the moment in paint. I live and work in San Francisco, California and often find inspiration for my paintings while exploring local parks and areas along the San Francisco Bay. I’m heavily inspired by my travels that have taken me to many places such as Iceland, Shanghai, Kerela (India) and Japan. Travel is an important component in my work as it allows me to observe and compare gradients of color, light and atmosphere in different geographic locations.
