Graduation Day: JMU

Angie is in pursuit of beautiful serendipity. She craves the perfect curve or twist.  Organic undulations weave through her mind, searching for an idea to rest upon.  Grace, beauty and dynamism are the qualities she aspires to.   Light is an intrinsic part of her work, it highlights the forms she creates as it glides along its surfaces. Her work is concerned with fluid forms that echo the movement of water. She seeks to express her passion for all things graceful, beautiful and dynamic so that the viewer's heart may sing with delight.



"I have a keen interest in the latest scientific developments, some of my art has been inspired by science. 
I see my garden as a big canvas and I love to be out there planting new
things and creating different areas.  I also enjoy being out on the
water and row with a local club competitivelyAngie McCormick
