Gallery Representation: Waverly Street Gallery, Bethesda, Maryland,

Medium: Pastel; oil
Subjects: Landscape.
Style: Impressionistic, Loriann states that she is a painter
of luminosity. She has been influenced by Hans Hoffman, Rothko, Wolf Kahn and
Richard McKinley, in particular their work with colour temperature.
Technique: Loriann points out that each painting goes through a
process that begins with an underpainting and progresses with thin layers of
glaze. it is often necessary to scrape, rub or sand the surface in order to
maintain the translucence sought. Small plein air paintings and colour notes
precede the studio work.

Field at Dusk is an exception at 6x6 ins, and I have featured it because it is
near actual size and must represent the artist’s plein air passion.
