My work emerges from countless layers, much like how time and elements shape natural landscapes. By working in abstraction, I attempt to translate sensory experiences and let intuition guide the process. Each painting eventually asserts its own direction, becoming a collaboration between artist and medium.

Based in the Seacoast region of New Hampshire, Theresa Hersman’s abstract paintings dive into water’s life-giving serenity and as a metaphor for the subconscious. Her painting process juxtaposes richly textured layers with mark-making and gestural brush marks. Theresa is a juried member of the National Association of Women Artists and the New Hampshire Art Association.
