In 1992, Dunnigan moved to Northern New Mexico in order to paint the brilliant light and saturated colors of the high desert. While there she studied with the painter Wolf Kahn at the Santa Fe Institute of • Art. Since returning to Virginia in 1994, Dunnigan can be found out and around the countryside of Rappahannock painting en plein air.
“I am primarily a colorist and whether the subject is a landscape or still life, color is the first element to which I respond,” said Dunnigan. “Working out-of-doors “en plein air” is what I love best,” she said. “In fact, the ability to be in a particular place at a particular time, and respond in an immediate and very direct way is what is most satisfying to me as a painter. Light- how it creates color and thus form- is what fascinates me technically. Transposing my emotional response, via these elements, onto canvas is at the heart of my work.”
