Mom' Art Batch One

Georganne Welty has been painting ever since her son can remember. She has always favored watercolors for their free flowing, translucent quality. While often representational her art warps and bends easily into the phantasmagoric and hallucinogenic.  That's not how she would describe it. This is her son talking. She would no doubt describe her work in more sobering terms. That's not surprising. She hails from a strongly Calvinistic, Scotch-Irish forbears. However in her art you can tell that something seems to have gone terribly or wonderfully wrong depending on your point of view.

I love my Mom's work. The walls in our house are covered with her paintings. Press these thumbnails to see an enlargement of each piece.
