Madeline describes her work as a juxtaposition of color, movement & pattern creating a
composition that is vibrant and thought provoking.
It is her belief that a true work of art should not only be a visual statement but should
stimulate the senses, quicken emotions, & allow the beholder to grasp the hidden
beauty that lies within.
Her mission as an artist is not to recreate nature, but rather to enhance the perception &
magnificence of its realm. To that end, Madeline employs a variety of mediums. Her
work endeavors to bridge the gap between fantasy & reality, portraying that window
which connects mankind to not only the environment but to the universe as a whole.
Madeline’s paintings portray not what she sees but what she dreams this reality to be.
In the words of the eminent painter Vincent Van Gogh, “I dream my painting and paint
my dream. In that, I find my greatest fulfillment.’’
