Aline Ordman is inspired by the particular qualities of light and color. Her landscapes, figures and still lifes use these qualities to illuminate the human and natural worlds, to capture the beauty that radiates from a particular passing moment. "A flicker of light on a shoulder, a splash of sun on a summer hat, flakes of light in a stand of maples, a shower of late afternoon sun on a hillside- these are the moments that attract me."

"My goal as an artist is to find those times and places where beauty is not only evident, but startling and suddenly present."
