Violet Fields (b. 1951, d. 2025 West Oakland, CA) is an African American artist and poet. Her abstract compositions of irregular past geometric shapes and lines feature pale “sandstone colors”, of personal reflections. Using layers of colored pencils and pastels over paint her works have subtle textures as seen in the folded and creased papers and canvases. Fields strived for her work to lift the human spirit and inspire the viewer to listen, inspire change, and be a positive force in the world. Love, God, war, fear, retaliation, family, hope and change are the subjects of her work.
