My sister Hilary (www.hilarysiber.com) is an artist in Charleston, soon to be getting her Masters in Art from Clemson. She had a show during the Spoleto festival in downtown Charleston. I took a few photos. She sells prints and the original pieces in handmade frames on Cureeo. A lot of her work is inspired by her faith. I love her heart and her eye. She’s a great artist and also a great Aunt to our children, they love their Hilly.
This is what she says about her method:
Creating a visual image is an emotional and energetic as well as thoughtful process for me. I only paint what I believe is important. When I work I am equally committed to my meditations and contemplations as I am to the formal process of painting. I believe that this mentality is what allows me to create. Without it, I would not have a painting. My work is an attempt to create visual imagery of moments that I have not participated in, but know to be true. The creation of the world we live in. Truths that I believe will eventually occur. Divinity. From both my process and my paintings, I hope to stir others meditations and contemplations. My paintings hope to serve as a platform for these dialogues to occur.
