Eventually I realized I was conjuring my home. I use paint, ink, gesture and glimmering metallics to revisit a time when I was surrounded by the Japanese things my mother collected in our little Houston house. Those objects and that small family life (my father, my mother and me) clearly had a strong and timeless impact on my personal sense of beauty and wonder. Brocades, brass, ginger jars and garden flowers surface again on canvas. My work rings with echoes. It quietly hands out joy. It invites you to find your own hidden treasure house. ABOUT RHONDA DORE Rhonda Doré's work is both ancient and contemporary. Her paintings resonate with audiences searching for calm and goodness in a world sharp with brambles and brokenness. Her pieces have appeared in two solo shows, on an album cover, and in several creative publications. She has exhibited at Kansas State University, in the Dallas Design District and at the El Paso Museum of Art. She was an advertising VP/group creative director and professor of advertising until 2021. She is now a full-time artist. Watch an interview with her here. |
