Ruth’s Plein Air paintings are a response to the environment around her, specifically a
time and place. As the sun moves across the sky, the scene is constantly changing with
new highlights and shadows, creating new compositions composed of the shifting colors
and shapes. The exception is a gray day, where the light barely moves.
Those soft days have a magic all of their own, with saturated color juxtaposed to the neutral grays.
These nuances of light and their impact on color and texture are what intrigue her,
creating a mood, and inspiring her to capture it, then pass It on to the viewer.
Ruth has painted and shown in upstate New York since 1992. Originally from New City,
New York, she has lived in Saratoga County for 50 years, and belongs to art councils
and organizations in Saratoga, Albany, Warren and Franklin Counties.
