Artist’s Statement
“I live alone with my paintbrushes. And paint.”
- Nancy Fitz-Rapalje
Biography
Nancy Fitz-Rapalje’s work offers us an intimate view of the solo life of a dedicated oil painter. Her work is of the objects which she sees as everyday, and is driven not by the subjects of her paintings, but by the work itself. Fitz-Rapalje’s work is done with a certainty and grace gained only by experience, practice, and the demands of making the difficult decisions in life.
It is in the execution of Fitz-Rapalje’s work where we find that we are being presented with more than a depiction of objects in her studio. We are witness to a monologue on the compulsion of an artist to paint, and the freedom found in the everyday when creation flows so intentionally.
