Norwood Creech, Perspectives from the Delta
with Commentary by Dr. Jeannie Whayne, February 2010
http://asunews.astate.edu/STFM~NCreechPerspectives09.htm
Note:
Norwood Creech is the third in a family of female painters, all well schooled in the classical traditions in both
painting and drawing. Yet Norwood's style has emerged distinctively her own, combining the best of classical
aspects with best of the contemporary spirit, energy and brevity. She has already attained a strong auction record and
had noteworthy honors and exhibitions. These honors include a Master Program with Wayne Thiebaud, at Santa Fe Institute;
an exhibition for the Lincoln Center Institute for Aesthetic Learning; and a residency at Dorland Mountain Artist Colony,
Temecula, California. She has had numerous exhibitions, including the University of Memphis Museum. She is represented
in some leading collections throughout the United States.
"Landscape in a Box" is both conceptual and impressionist in nature. The Eastern Arkansas landscape is often noted for
its very flat nature, being represented here within a three-dimensional open box. It is a quite unique exploration of
imposing two- and three-dimensional forms upon one another, while retaining strong yet free delineation and brushwork.
She has also been fascinated by the expansive unbroken Delta sky, which dominates the Eastern Arkansas landscape,
and - so perfectly - this painting.
