Artist statement sourced from Red Hammond's website:
ORIGINALITY
As an artist I put myself into the piece of art not to achieve originality for its own sake, but to be honest to, to follow the work. Immersion in the making ensures that the work will be authentic -.that its uniqueness allows the work to emanate its own light, encouraging the viewer to look and to see. While not initially apparent, my paintings typically have numerous, subtle inflections that are often hidden at first glance because the large primary, usually black forms, are strong and register first.
SHAPES AND EMOTIONS
I place significant emphasis on my ability to invent personal shapes. When put together, they establish a dialogue within the painting. I start without any preconceived idea for the painting and do not work from drawing in order to maintain the spontaneity and challenge to work through a solution - to remain fresh and capable of creating surprises for both myself and the viewer. Working instinctually, , I grope around, figuring out how the feelings I have manifest themselves in a specific shape or shapes and how to achieve the overall mood I’m searching for in a particular piece.
SYMBOLS AND MEANING
I build a painting with symbols that go beyond words, creating works that may appear somewhat opaque, mysterious, at times. This encourages engagement on the part of the viewer and allows each viewer to arrive at their own ideas concerning the works’ meaning. Viewers of art often confuse subject matter with content. A cow in a field is a cow in a field - that is subject matter. Content is what the artist puts in of him or herself. That is an intangible that is difficult to decipher. I find the early work of the American abstract expressionists and the artifacts and ritual art of indigenous peoples and tribal cultures to be inspirations.
COMPLETION
Often I’m sure that I have completed a painting and for that moment in time I probably have. Sometimes, however, hours, days or several years later, I look at again and realize that while I was correct for that moment, the painting’s potential was never realized. So I begin the process of working that painting again, and this process can go on for years until I’ve finally got the painting to where it needs to be in order for it to be fully realized.
ART AS THERAPY AND DISCOVERY
Like life, art is not just about self-improvement but also about self-discovery. If I’m not working on getting better as a painter, improving my paint application or pushing myself to expand my limits as a person, I feel I’m letting myself down and falling short of my potential as an artist. Each day in the studio is a mini-metaphor for life that demands and rewards patience.… Without it, I end up with a big muddy mess on the canvas, and with patience I can listen to the painting and it tells me where it wants to go. When things in my studio are really working and I’m allowing the painting to speak to me, something like magic happens. I step back and some other force of the universe takes over and guides me. Then painting is really fun and not a wrestling match with the painting. To arrive at that place, I go through the struggle of trying to impose my will onto the painting….. and, finally, I give in, live in acceptance and, amazingly, the painting begins to take shape.

Bio from Renee Ritter's website:
I'm a New Yorker, born and bred. I was raised with noise and rush and life all around me. My world was vivid technicolor, and no one ran faster than I did. I met and married the man of my dreams, and had the joys and exasperations of raising a family. And all of these events would have been the colors of my canvas if not for the happy opportunity of being able to spend some years in Japan.
Japan is the perfect place to plunk down a New Yorker. While it races along on one level, there is this other part of Japan that forces you to hit the mental brakes until the images racing by slow down enough to actually be seen! Eastern thought is a well from which to draw the pure water that clears the mind and strengthens the soul.
I've had the unbelievable pleasure of turning visions into realities, and of having those pieces of me scattered around the world. I'm thrilled that they've found so much acceptance in exhibitions, and I'm humbled at the thought that they hang on the walls of museums. But I have to say that I am most pleased when they speak so loudly to another soul that that person has to bring me home to continue our conversation for years to come.
For the last 18 years, I've been a teacher, too. I have all the joys of being able to step back from what I do, and think through the principles I've recognized and the pathways I've wandered. And then to offer those insights to others to help them bring out their own mental images for the rest of us to share.
