Starseed Gallery

starseed gallery features the art of marlis jermutus - exhibitions, installations, education and sales. from the artist: i began my career in art as an abstract impressionist painter. my impressions of nature, usually landscapes, became abstract forms on the canvas. years later, through journeys of self exploration, i began to express the form and movement of an inner landscape. i became an abstract expressionist painter. my abstract forms became an expression of that dynamic interior dance. what i call an expression of this inner landscape, others have described as intuition, or insight, or a manifestation of the sub-conscious. in recent years, i have found a way to transcend the interior dance. through techniques in meditation while painting, the ego becomes still - leaving a pure awareness of the moment. while painting in this state, i feel an enormous joyful freedom expressed in spontaneous improvisation. these spontaneous movements produce a painting, but the movements themselves
