About this Artist
In her artist's statement, Marci Crawford Harnden says, "Between impulse and self imposed structure I consistently use botanical reference, skeletal tree forms and atmospheric light to express my aesthetic intentions. My passion for observation and experimental process is distilled into the illusions found in these works. I intend to create an intimate sense of landscape as I push the scale to greater degrees. My intention is to feel enveloped and connected with nature, not to stand apart from it."
