Acrylic on Canvas
48 x 24
My overall inspiration and creative process has to do with body language. I adore that this is a universal language transcending cultural backgrounds. Figures are the vehicle I use; posing the figures specifically to portray a feeling or idea using body language.
This particular piece titled "Turning the Page" encapsulates the confidence needed to take that next step in life or make a change while also showing the tension or push and pull of emotions you may be facing during a time like this in your life. I hope that my audience can relate their own personal experiences with my paintings, which makes the work meaningful to them.
Materials:
The materials chosen for the original artwork have been meticulously selected and undergone more than ten years of experimentation and creation.
Acrylic paintings are done with Golden Heavy Body Acrylics. This type of paint has been offered since 1980 and is known for its intense color and rich consistency. Golden Artist Colors’ headquarters and factory are located in New Berlin, New York. Fun fact: this company is employee owned and the paints are safe to use around our precious fur friends, such as Olive.
