About Georgina......By Georgina

I feel like I dont have a choice about painting. I dont 'do it' somehow 'it does me' I also dont choose my subjects, I feel that they somehow choose me.

My paintings are not strictly botanical paintings and they are not simply a straight visual description. I dont pull a plant apart to 'get a picture out of it.' That is not part of my painting process... and I cant paint small either, because it all feels cramped as if they cant breathe!


I feel like I deal with the character of the plant. My paintings are more like plant portraits.
I feel like I paint the life of a plant .
