Objects on White

In this section, Vaughan plays with notions of still life, using french words with vintage toys to poke fun at American culture. Other paintings animate seaweed like dancers.The artist brings a sense of humor to her subject matter, as she practices painting realism with light and shadow.

Painting objects on white is a way to exercise observation skill and encourage a broader range of palette. Painting is constantly a lesson in learning and these small works keep things fresh and, metaphorically, fun to think about.
