About Me
Born in the Midwest, Constance arrived in Texas in 2005. Originally planning on staying for a short while, Constance fell in love with Texas (and a Texan!). She now lives in Arlington with her patient partner, Lance, their two dogs, Shiner Bark & Ranger. When she’s not practicing law, she’s creating art, reading or trying to get tomatoes to grow in Texas.
Artist’s Statement
Primarily figurative, my work tells a story. I draw from my experiences, memories, current and historical events, shared universal feminine experiences, travel, and literature/poetry to make social, political or moral comment. Whether humorous, ironic, personal, or universal, my goal is to create more than just an image or object. Instead I hope to invoke a reaction–a thought, memory, shared experience, or emotion–positive or negative. I apply this same approach to my portrait work–reaching for an interpreted (and not photo-realistic) portrayal of each subject.
