JUNE LANIGAN

“My work is a language to communicate a world.  It is a world of the many things I love: plant forms, trees, clouds, the sea, mountains and rocks. If I merely copy these things, I betray them,  I must build my own forms in order to translate these loves and arrive at their inner meaning, their intensity and their spirit.”
