Diane McCormick creates commissions for public spaces, specifically designed for each environment whether they be healthcare, education, community settings or a private home.
“My shapes and decoration are influenced by forms found in the natural world : birds in the garden , shapes of seed pods, insects and beach worn stones and the different textures of shells and coral. I also look at different cultures for sources of inspiration, particularly the Byzantines for their domed buildings and the Inuit for their decorative tools and domestic utensils. Poetry has been the source for many of my line drawings on pictures and wall murals.”
