"The subject of my work stems from nature, the intimate and familiar settings of the home, city and country life. I simply want the viewer to capture the sense of uninhibited joy that emerges from nature - the exuberance of life itself. I try to create on canvas an interaction with color and objects and to reflect a sense of spontaneity, brightness, serenity and harmony. "

Sally Friedman, February 2006
