Renee Waters

Artist Statement

I look at Art as a form of Therapy, Healing of my mind, soul and yes also my body.  My body holds thoughts and many fears, when I paint, I feel free and alive, at peace.  I incorporate old things that I find around my city into my paintings., this reminds me where I have come from, my roots.  I paint because I also want to forget, forget the hatred and sorrow that many of us are carrying around with us.  When I paint, I ask for forgiveness and healing for all of mankind. I feel healing in my hands often and want to share this with the world.
