Baroque Muse Interview, February 6, 2019

What are you currently involved in as an artist/teacher?
I refer to myself as a figurative representational painter. I predominately paint females, and my subject matter is “transcendence.” I portray people who live now, but the costumes, the settings, the colors, the gestures are all echoes of Baroque painting. I also teach privately and at the Regis High School girls’ division. My main interest there is teaching old masters’ drawing and oil painting techniques. I’ve actually learned many of my teaching techniques from music teachers. Like music, to learn art you need to learn nuts and bolts… and then how to be expressive.

Cover portrait: Arcangelo Corelli, by Heather Delzell (2018)

As a collaborative aspect of this project, we asked Denver-based artist Heather Delzell to create a new portrait of Arcangelo Corelli, one that portrays the composer outside of his time period, as if he lived and played the violin among us today.
