“Homage to CDF”, cut paper collage on board, 9″x12″, ©Laurie Joan Aron

Laurie’s artwork comes to us from New York City and this is one of her two pieces that were accepted into this exhibit. She says this about her work:

My pictures are both called “Homage to CDF”. CDF is Caspar David
Friedrich, an artist of the early 19th century who created, in
painting, scenes of intense silent reverence using emotionally charged
natural settings. A lone tree, twisted with age, a lone figure at a
moonlit beach…these were his subjects, simple, but radiating a sense
of power greater than man.

Most of my art, which is cut paper collage, is inspired by art
movements of the past. In these pieces, I’m working in a modern,
abstract mode to recapture the silent reverence that Friedrich so
eloquently captured in painting.
