Vanda Edington

"Creating a visual image, a communication that evokes positive emotion – first for me and then others – is what art means to me. It is the personal expression of fleeting thought, whimsy, a smile, a beautiful day. My inspiration comes from workshops, travel and other artists as I discover my visual voice. You will find my paintings are moving to be a bit more impressionistic, as I strive to simplify images as I simplify life. Enjoy the journey with me. I hope to enLiven  a moment. "
