Nancy Friese’s artistic practice is largely informed by the close observation of nature and landscape. Natural elements are synthesized in her work to create a composite of things the artist has seen, and of the experience of seeing. Friese states, “I tie the visual observations to experience. A unified surface is created by incremental decisions representing the outward world.” Avondale Preserve I is the result of monotype printing, wherein an artist creates a composition in ink or paint directly on a plate to produce a single, unique image.
