Artist statement
My name is Ginger Frederick, and I am a professional working artist and gallery owner of Frederick Galleries in Milwaukee. I am a colorist, and I paint impressionistic paintings working in oils, acrylics, pastels and watercolors. My subject matter includes still lifes, landscapes and portraits. I am inspired by the way light hits an object, as in the Renaissance technique, "Chiaroscuro"--light and shadow effects. My technique is painterly with soft edges. I try to work with temperature of color, warm next to cool or cool next to a warm tone. I would hope my artwork is expressionistic, lively and colorful, creating a sense of joy to others.
