Artist Statement
- Paula Ann Ford
- In the Mountains West of Chattanooga, Tennessee, United States
- Landscapes are my chosen subjects because I have always been amazed at the way nature arranges its compositions into scenes that capture my imagination and stay in my memories. Therefore, my paintings become keepsakes of places from our journeys. They represent happy times and peaceful daydreams experienced as they have permeated our senses through the memories of fresh mountain breezes, fragrant wild flowers, and the changing seasons. And so, as the historian records past events, so shall I record the ever changing landscapes of our time and leave souvenirs for all to be reminded of the places visited in our travels.
INSPIRATION
A Message to All of You
I see beautiful landscapes through the eyes of a child...pure, innocent, loving, peaceful, breathtaking. The places I create are free of fear and harm and are places to sit, dream, contemplate, and smell the fresh air. These places are made for you to lay out a blanket and just daydream the day away, or just walk through with no cares. There is only love in them because love created them. With love, Paula (P.S. That is my little baby Peanut. She is almost 20 years old.)

THE BOOK THAT IS CHANGING MY LIFE AS A PROFESSIONAL ARTIST
Alyson Stanfield's book I'd Rather Be in the Studio! The Artist's No-Excuse Guide to Self-Promotion is the most comprehensive self-promotion advice out there for artists. And not only is it packed with information, she also shows artists of all kinds how to implement each action step. I can also attest that the book is well designed, easy to follow, and a pleasure to look at (graphically). If you are a working artist or craftsman, this book will help to change your life by teaching you, step by step, how to promote yourself (and also what not to do!). This book is packed with things you would never think of doing. Just for example, how hard is it for you to finally write your artist's statement? READ the book and you will finally write it!! I guarantee you won't be disappointed!! (Click on the book for ordering information.)
I buy my business cards and lots of other items at VistaPrint. They have the BEST prices anywhere!
The place to get beautiful prints made of your paintings!
My Testimonial of iprintfromhome.com
Stand up for what you believe in!!!
Let us have a complete restoration of American. PLEASE don't pave one more beautiful pasture. PLEASE don't cut down one more tree. PLEASE don't build another building...until the restoration of the existing is complete.
