I seek the capture of extraordinary quintessential beauty in compelling compositions of the ordinary.
Beautiful art, to me, is not created by objects of representation, but rather by the relationships of line, color and form- and the contrast between light and dark. The quest for abstract beauty in everyday objects fuels my passion to create my work and inspires me to continue my path as an artist, searching for the next great find.

Mikirk says:
"These color pieces are indeed PAINTINGS. LuAnn's sense of intense color balance, and formal composition is SO STRONG, not too mention her perfect touch with distressed details and 'noise.' I love this sort of Diebenkorn-like contrast of big with tight, wide with small, line with square, and that sense of edge, or border...along with the sheer heat of the colors! (which in lesser hands can so easily be overdone.) LuAnn's eye for a sophisticated, uncluttered framing, which also empowers her fine photography, coupled with that deeply satisfying palette, is producing consistently marvelous visual art. In that sense then, these 'digital works' earn that higher more elusive application of the term 'Paintings.' They deserve to be seen at size on walls."

"Very original and rare to find works. My worship rises especially her minimalist and abstract works. The way she works with shapes and colours is fascinating. You dive into the world of her works and feel lost in admiration. Full of inspiration and creativity works make her one of the greatest artists I have met here in Flick"

"There are quite a few digital abstract/textural photographers out there, but Luann's work is special. It has a point of reference to it (Textiles, Tibetan rug designs, natural fungi, etc.) that allows the viewer to find their own personal imaginative context within it --- thus her work is even stronger as an abstract. Plus she is a wizard at capture of light and use of color!"
