Under the Sea

“Exploring the natural world, and illuminating social justice, feed my artistic vision. Even though my actual vision is limited, I see in my mind’s eye and connect to my hand’s movement to express that vision with bold colors, textures and expressive strokes.” When we observe the world around us, Verner says, what we see is light reflecting on objects, shapes and textures. “Light is vital, powerful, but art does exist without light. As the light fades from my eyes, let art be my reflection.”
