About Renee Pitts: "I am on a journey with my art. From childhood exploration to formal education and teaching art as a high school art teacher I have traveled through different philosophies, techniques and methods learning ways to express and to capture an essence of a moment or place. I've found that looking inward to what my heart holds significant always leads me to the inspiration and answers I need to create that essence of moment and place. In this process I've found that the dilemma becomes choices that must be made in applying the elements of art in such a way that they speak truth of my vision, my thoughts. It is in this process, this search for freedom of listening and expressing that joy is found, and I hope recognized, experienced snd celebrated in some way by the viewer."
