There is a Season

Madison Perrins



These paintings created by Madison Perrins were guided by an appreciation for the singular energy each season of life can bring to the outer and inner landscape. The artist uses her understanding that each season contains its own unique lesson to try and enjoy the gift of them in real time: the mercurial quality of spring, the whisper of solitude in fall, or the bright shock of summer. Her work lifts up a deeply personal spirituality held in the landscape, especially inspired by the sweeping expanses of the Western US & her beloved Montana. In turns, her imagery embodies joy, playfulness, power, the sacred, interiority, and radiant energy.

EMERSON SPACE AVAILABLE
