“Renée is an intuitive painter with a magical sense of color, and gestural mark-making. Renée’s path is heroic as she studies, writes, paints, and tends to her child and garden with love and care. She is deeply committed to her painting, to growth, expansion and creating community.”

— Faith Wilding, Womanhouse, Eco-Feminist and former advisor & mentor.

“To know Renée is to understand her need to constantly engage with contemporary critical discourse around race, class, gender, and the intersections therein. She employs the rich vernacular of Abstract Expressionism in her own work, while exploiting its tropes and pitfalls.”

— Suzy Spence
