Fritzie Urquhart: ‘The Constellation Tree’

Painter, Sculptor

Artist’s Statement: Painting and sculpting is for me the process of discovering the extraordinary within the ordinary, and creating art that celebrates those qualities. My painting and sculpture include the use of textural materials and innovative techniques that create revelations of color and form.
