My Artist Statement
Somone will always think of a different
way to express themselves,
some better than others.
Our lives are built on visual stimulation
and an artist shares with the world
their visions.
"As long as I have a want,
I have a reason for living!
Satisfaction is death"
George Bernard Shaw
Shaw's quote puts into words part of the reason I am an artist.
My artistic wants are numerous and quite clear.
I want to experience all of this world that I possibly can.
I want to taste the sweetness of life and share my interpretations with others!
This is part of my responsibility as an artist.
with my search for the
meaning of life altogether.
My adult life has been spent
seeking a reason for my existence.
My art is emotional,
passionate
and it reflects the
beauty that I find
here on earth

to close ups of rust
on a car fender
or a tiny alpine
wildflower
found along a
mountain stream
Today's contemporary artist is expected to have a great message to share with all mankind.
Experience the sweetness of life!

Thanks for your patience.
Share a smile with those around you.
Your smile may help someone escape
their darkness of the moment
and help guide them into the light.
That is the purpose for my art.
Joan Lucille Selvage
There will always be new ideas
Life is always changing.
My search for
beauty is linked

It ranges from the vast landscape
My message is simply that pleasure can come from
everything and everyone around you.
Don't dwell on the darkside
but seek out kindness.
