Vass grew up in the glacier area of Wisconsin.
Her hometown was small and her roaming range
quite large. She was fascinated by the changes
in the sky and the colors of the seasons. She
watched the cows and sheep graze in the pastures
and all of life seemed amazingly slow and
multi-colored. She was content to scan her
environment to find the colors, textures, moods,
and compositions that she would later paint.
Her paintings burst with the reflections and
experiences of her childhood adventures and
adult travel. The desert, the ocean, the
mountains and the architecture of her world
travel all find a place in her work; never as
one scene from one location but a blenderful of
images from many times and places. She has
painted flocks of sheep, herds of cows, choirs
of angels, and countless towns, cities, palaces,
bridges, and cemeteries. Her paintings are like
random pages out of the diary of her life; come
experience the joy of her art. |
