Ingrid Strecker has always been captivated by the interplay of colors; working primarily in acrylic, her compositions are meticulously layered and cosmic in scope. Strecker's work is inspired by recognized forms and the environment but is abstracted through her use of mixed-media techniques; using acrylic, sand, wax, and applying these mediums with both brushes and palette knives.
Strecker aims to create tension within her compositions; her color palette revealing the contrast between light and shadow, black and white, and the interaction between primary and secondary colors. Strecker's creative process is rooted in her ability to invite her viewers into another reality and imagination; creating room for both herself and her viewers to experience another reality.
