Houses<\/h5>\n<\/div>\n
\n

“My Paintings are self-portraits. I paint and photograph about who I am, who we are, our relationships to our environment and to the world at large. Through paint and my chosen image, be it a house, an iceberg, a floatie, or a snorkeler, I search with a soft voice to make sense of our changing world.<\/em><\/p>\n

My houses, often windowless and isolated, are staged as portraits with painted backdrops of sometimes mountains and sometimes sea. Often set in strong light, the houses reside in a staged world filled with quiet mystery with
undercurrents of forgotten dreams lingering in the corners of the canvas. And while I sometimes follow a different road away, I always return home or so it seems.”<\/em> <\/br>– Joan P. Albaugh<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
