Artist’s Statement
Justine believes that every place carries a story, emotion, and feeling, and she strives to capture these elements in her paintings. Using thick, buttery oil paints applied with a palette knife, she creates textured works that invite viewers to recall personal memories of places they’ve been or feelings they’ve experienced. Through her art, she hopes you can sense the love and joy she feels during the creative process.
