Faye Hoffman
I practice my art to experience, observe, interpret and hold space for what I feel in the moment; emotions, gestures, light, mood, tone, shape, colour, aroma… the ocean mist. It is important to me to practice my art deeply and in a flow state; to develop an intuitive understanding of my subject, technical challenges and overall artistic process. I want to nurture a mindful presence and state of being where art is integral to my joyful life.
