Green Brook artist Theresa Carson will be exhibiting her artwork of varying mediums at the Somerset County Library System of New Jersey's (SCLSNJ) Warren Twp. branch in a show titled, "Seeing With Your Heart," through May 31, 2024.
Carson's art is created using watercolor, acrylic, pastel, metal, and ink and is inspired by the beauty of everyday experiences such as an early morning sunrise, a blooming flower, or the beauty of the animal kingdom.
“When I see someone or something that stirs my heart, I feel the need to capture it visually," said Carson. "I’ve discovered living in the moment helps me capture these memorable experiences on canvas, paper, or photograph. It’s so therapeutic; whether enjoying the sun on my face as I’m painting outside, or feeling tears of joy and gratitude well up in my heart as I gaze at something almost ethereal."
Continued Carson, "I feel transported to another world when I’m in the zone, creating. Time and space are nothing to me and I can work for hours, which seem like minutes. Maybe more folks will take the time to stop and smell the roses.”
