From Fort Worth Botanic Garden:
“Artist Erika Huddleston’s large-scale paintings take nature as their subject, specifically nature in urban settings. Her abstractions of the natural world stem from an interest in landscape architecture; she looks at how people use outdoor space and is particularly interested in better understanding how perceiving changing natural processes in an urban park setting can affect human psychology. Painting for long hours in park “urban wilderness” settings in cities around the world provides the means to stay onsite for longer periods of time for analysis and observation beyond a brief site walk. Her work is painted life-size and drawn and painted as seen from a sitting position in the landscape– whether a small flower or large branches. This exhibition of new work features canvases painted on our prairie during the autumn of 2021.”
