Loren Doucette lives in Gloucester and is a full-time painter. Her work can be viewed at her gallery seven days a week from June to January where she offers art mentoring and classes during the winter months. Using oil, acrylic, pastel and gouache, her work includes architectural landscapes unique to Gloucester’s harbor, vibrant floral paintings, emotional figurative work and abstractions that come from the bones of all three subjects.
"The main thing is my desire for abstraction and reality to meet. If I go too far in one of those directions, I get really uncomfortable and try to go back to the middle. I often start off very realistic, but then it doesn’t feel like me unless I make it reach toward the spiritual, metaphysical, and abstract. I like elements that float." - Loren Doucette
