A m e rican artist Therese Misner oil painting ABOUT THE ARTIST: I use everyday objects and subjects in my work. In my “Unlocking Your Dreams” series, a real key is permanently attached to each piece. Keys historically have been used as tools to open and close pathways. They also represent freedom and power over oneself. My goal with this collection it so have the viewer interpret the key symbolism to open passages to whatever they dream possible.
