Isabel Lawrence's minimal approach derives from her respect for time, history and nature. Inspired by the structural lines of Japanese design, her meditative paintings are created with a sense of freedom and abstraction as well as precision and commitment to representation and form. She captures the effect of time on objects in nature such as pebbles and stick figures, which she arranges in repetitive patterns. Lawrence's aspires to portray nature in its purist form and to make images that speak to the viewer's own personal history.
