B. J. Wright
BJ Wright studied art briefly in the mid 1970's. In 1998, a trip to Ireland with her daughter reawakened the desire to paint landscapes. Since then she has painted from her own photographs and imagined landscapes. In 2005, a plein air workshop whetted her appetite for the experience of painting outdoors, which has become her passion. Her artworks are in collections in Ireland and in the Southeastern USA.

I’m often asked what I like about painting, especially my most favorite medium, whether it is oil, acrylic, or watercolor. Asking me this is quite like asking what type of candy I prefer in a box of chocolates. They’re all fabulous, as are all the materials I’ve used in creating the hundreds of paintings over a career spanning forty years. What matters most is that I am painting. Those of us that enjoy our visual world need a way of recording it. Whether you take vacation photos or just a picture of those exquisite tulips you grew last spring, you can understand how important it is to have a memory of it. It’s that way with painting. I must record the beauty I see in order to remember it myself and to have others remember it, too.
One painting teacher I had in graduate school told me to keep painting, no matter what. Her philosophy said it all. She believed that painting was more than the application of paint to surfaces. It was a pure process by which we encourage ourselves to carefully examine our surroundings, reflect on what we see, and leave lasting images for those that follow. Most notably, she believed that we ought to enjoy and value the painting process by which we grow as individuals each time we pick up the brush.

The Art of Games Exhibition
Finally have some time to update this blog a little. We just got back from a few (much needed!) vacations this summer, most notable of which was our trip to Italy for the Art of Games exhibition! I have a few pieces in the gallery along with many other notable industry artists.
We had an unforgettable time at the show, enjoying the beautiful scenery in the Valle D'Aosta, and making new friends.
The show is still running and will run until November, so if you are in the area or need a destination for a vacation, you should check it out. You can find out more about the show at The Art of Games website.
