Artist Statement
I have become mainly an abstract artist in my adult retirement life exploring printmaking and acrylic painting. The process in producing creative work is unique with each artist. It is the essence of my past, present and future.
The years of experience, education, and emotional ups and downs may be reflected in most artist’s work. I gave up conforming to rules and standards knowing that deviating from norms could limit acceptance of my art. The why, how, and where the inspiration comes from may be beyond my understanding.
“Key” by Ruth Bravetti
My goal is to have fun, letting go, and just feeling good about the process of creating. This is what keeps this artist producing; playing with color, shapes, texture etc. My artwork is displayed locally and internationally.
Ruth Bravetti’s work will be on display in the State Theater Lobby throughout the run of A Christmas Carol, November – December 2024.
