vault

Welcome to My Studio by Denise Ernest

Thank you for stopping by my studio.  In my life, I've visited some dark places--the "Vault," because that's where I put things for a very long time.  

I work with and against that darkness in my paintings.  I am pulled toward the sparkle of car paint, how a pearl looks, the hardness and fluidity of metal, the drape of a silk scarf, the brilliance of a jewel. The draw to abstraction is the way I can speak without submitting to the darkness in the real.  

My photography is a little bit different.  It's how I look at the real and find the abstract quality in the here and now.  

As I have more time, I will come back to this blog and talk about individual work.  For now, I am pleased to be able to welcome you to my studio website.  

Feel free to leave me some feedback on any of my work.

Thanks again for stopping by.  Until next time....Denise Eno Ernest
