ARTIST'S STATEMENT
“I am inspired by my own travels. Places and people offer me new scenarios and feelings to pour into my painting. Europe, USA, Asia, all cultures suggest diversity, to which I want to be the eye witness. On the other hand, art is a lens that translates the outside world for me to understand it and connect to humanity.
My way to achieve this is either paint on location, or take notes and draw sketches when I travel. I strive to work by memory, which requires a deeper observation; I select only what really reso-nates within. If I use my own photos I draw an edited version of the subject. Then I decide my own color arrangement, according to my mood and pre-mix a limited number of colors on my palette. At this point the brushwork should be (or at least appear) the easiest and most effortless. In other words, the painting should paint itself!
Ultimately I want the viewer to get lost in a timeless story. It's my highest reward. And a bet every single time.”

Feature Artist Bio
By permission of the artist, The Cyber Art Show is pleased to feature the second of two 12-piece exhibitions of works by American painter
Corinne McIntyre (born 1931 in Boston, MA).
Corinne lives on the coast of Maine at Ocean Point in East Boothbay. A professional plein-air and studio painter, she is happiest painting by the sea. Comfortable with oil or watercolour, she finds that the two disciplines help, influence and complement each other.
Corinne originally trained and painted in the classical manner; then for many years painted abstracts and semi-abstracts of her trips to Greece, Italy, Spain and France where she enjoyed the major museums of each country.
She is graduate of The Art Institute of Boston (scholarship) (formerly known as the School of Practical Art). After working as a Technical Illustrator at M.I.T., a Free Lance Illustrator, and a one-person art department for a Computer Science Corporation, she became a Graphic Designer for a Fortune 500 company. She then owned and managed her own successful Design business.
Since moving to Maine she has come full-circle to focus full-time on her painting and to plein-air painting in particular. Her subjects are mostly the coastal landscape that is so inspiring for her. She has taken oil workshops with Anne Blair Brown, Scott Christensen, Don Demers, Don Stone, Matt Smith, and George Van Hook. She is also influenced by the work of Mark Boedges, Richard Oversmith, Tibor Nagy and many others.
For the past 25 years she has owned and managed her own gallery, Ocean Point Studio in East Boothbay. The gallery is visited by people from all over the world.
