Artist's Statement

Maureen Rafferty Sorensen (MRS POURS) creates fluid acrylic paintings with intent. She swipes, dips, drizzles, blots, blows, drags, spills, flips, twists, pushes, picks, torches, smashes, dabs, tilts, and spatters paint onto canvas.  She never uses a brush.

​

She is self-taught and prolific, having been initially mesmerized by YouTube demonstrations. She was outfitted and enabled by her older brother, and "liked" and encouraged by a world-wide social media community. To the extent that she can continue, it will be because of the loving tolerance and support of her immediate family.
