| A.C. Maki was born in Kentucky during the 1960's yet she spent her childhood in Omaha, Nebraska where she learned to cherish the color of corn fields against grey skies.

My Artist Statement
A.C. MAKI:
I like to paint with a combination of oils, pastels, and acrylic on canvas. The movement that has influenced my work the most is Expressionism. I have studied Chaim Soutine and Egon Schiele’s work, which are some of my favorite artists.
Sometimes I use large unstretched canvas and various tools to reach and create. |
