Hills and Valleys: Marta Dorton

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Marta Dortion earned a BA in Art Studio, emphasis in Painting from the University of Kentucky. Her painting process involves scraping layers of Liquitex acrylic paint onto canvas with a squeegee. She seeks to feel small on the Earth, to understand her place in the vast order of life and time, to feel relevance in the midst of nature’s enormity. Family and land are elements that run deep in her heart and artwork. Kentucky is a commonwealth of great variety and beauty. The colorful and changing landscapes have played an important role in the art she creates.

    Have you ever thought about including a little bit more
    than just your articles? I mean, what you say is fundamental and everything.
    But imagine if you added some great images or videos to give your posts more,
    “pop”! Your content is excellent but with images and video clips, this blog could
    certainly be one of the greatest in its field. Superb blog!
