Neverland, a fictional world from J. M. Barrie’s Peter Pan, is inspired by the natural imaginative curiosity of children, and the magical, soaring adventures that are revered today by folks of all ages.
The Aurora Borealis Series: Wanting to capture the essence of this natural phenomenon, the Aurora Borealis series was created, a body of work that has an other-worldly feel. Krutick uses dynamic gestures with giant splashes of color—often defined by exploding pools of purples, pinks and blues—to symbolize feelings of excitement that she experiences when exploring her creative spirit. Krutick states, “like the Aurora Borealis, when I create, my spirit soars, sweeps, sparkles, and is unafraid to shine.”
