SHELLEY WALES

Working primarily in watercolour and oil, I paint and collage the Pacific Northwest’s stunning wilderness and urban green spaces. My paintings explore the idea that landscape and our recollections of it are not one thing but are instead a collection of small, sometimes seemingly insignificant, things that we experience and interact with as we move through it. Candid moments of being that are quilted together in our mind and form our memory of place when we close our eyes and remember.
