Piece description from the artist
BECOMING BUTTERFLY SERIES Butterfly represents the rebirth of spirit. In this we see the emergence, movement, in process, and are reminded that we too are forever becoming.
Becoming Butterfly Series embodies the essence of butterflies. Exploring what it is to lose one's self and discover wings this series challlenged me to look deeply at myself through the colors textures and formulations of the paintings.
Dorothy Fagan's search for joy inspires her uplifting paintings. Her harmonious blend of gentle pastel and jewel colors help viewers tune in to their colorful nature and the landscape within.
Located at the confluence of fresh and salt water, she paints brackish waters of the Great Chesapeake Bay Watershed at her studio by the pond in Mathews County, Virginia for two decades. In 2012 her first 10' multi-canvas mural, 'Heart' was installed in the lobby of the Camp LeJeune Health Facility in collaboration with Distinctive Art Source.
She holds a B.F.A. from East Carolina University in Printmaking and Painting, and an American Masters Painting Mentorship with Robert Bowers Mayo, Richmond, Virginia.
