From the Artist's Statement...

" The veil of moist Eastern light had obscured the geometry I sought in Nature until, in mid-career, I awoke to Southwestern sculptural light and dark, and the architectonic structure underlying Western landscape in all seasons.  As if my abstract sense had been masquerading as landscape, I changed my focus radically, delighting in the revealed TENSION between illusion in depth and flat patterning on the surface of a canvas, avoiding balance or resolve either way. "

" Fifty solo gallery shows in as many years of exhibiting nation-wide have resulted in 4 Museum surveys, the most important of which is my 50 year retrospective with its accompanying book Elevated Perspective: the Paintings of Joellyn Duesberry, opening at the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center July 2- September 11, 2011.
