Featuring Kim Schusler
My art journey started later in life, about 8 years ago, in which I started painting with acrylic. I found acrylic difficult and finally realized my passion was found once I tried watercolor! I'm a self taught artist, and have not had any formal training.
The paintings on display are a reflection of the beauty that surrounds us here in New Hampshire. I only paint when I feel compelled to do so, I try to not force the flow of creativity. I hope my art brings you a sense of peace and joy as it did for me when I created them.

"When I create art, I am entirely inspired by color. I love hues that play off each other and make the painting “pop.” The color pallet brings inspiration to the design. I start painting and let the colors take me on a journey. I often begin with a concept in mind, but as the colors guide me, the painting takes on a life of it’s own. I hope my art brings the joy of color into your life!
I completely agree with Claude Monet when he said, “Color is my day-long obsession and joy.”"

.Painting gives me the freedom to explore, to experiment and to test my ability to capture nature’s beauty.
There is nothing better than retreating to my studio and getting lost in the challenge of making an image come alive on my canvas!
Living here in New Hampshire,where the seasons are every changing, gives me the opportunity to vary my colors and explore how many different colors there are in snow!!
My next endeavor will be to try “plein air”painting up here on my hill.

" I am an American painter of my environment. Where once art needed nature to survive, we now need art to help nature survive. While not politically motivated, in a sense-- because I paint nature, my work is a political statement. I paint to capture beauty, to hold forever a passing moment, to memorialize that which may be fleeting, or in the case of barns and industrial sites, falling. If my paintings, pastels and drawings help more people become aware of what may be potentially lost, can invoke a sense of wonder as in childhood, and can be emotionally moving and provoking, then a statement with a profound impact may be the result. It is a search for the truth without sentimentality. My work is of nature, but just as important, it is about painting, color, structure. The images are about Romanticism, transcendentalism and pure emotion. I try to make the immense intimate".

Exhibit Opening SUNDAY May 7th
Shulman was brought up by his parents to have a deep love for fine art. After touring art galleries and being exposed to the masters he fell in love with ....." Those latter artists excited me. I fell in love with Van Gogh’s swirls of land and sky, Picasso’s “misplaced” eyes, De Chirico’s enigmatic city squares, Dali’s dreamscapes, Matisse’s unpredictable palette, Magritte’s avant-guard humor, and Kandinsky’s energetic splashes of solids and lin
