In my everyday life, I am an engineer, a single mother, and a breast cancer survivor. My experiences have shaped what I choose to paint, and how to paint it. And yet, the greatest lesson I have learned is to go with the flow. I start with a subject that interests me, something I see or a vision from a dream. I allow the colors for the painting choose themselves; I begin with the intention of representing the subject realistically, magic intervenes and I become a conduit between the Universe and the canvas, merely recording the vibrations and messages that exist in that particular time and space. I become my intuition.
-- Laura D. McHugh
