Learning to Forget Artwork

"All real living hurts as well as fulfils. Happiness comes when we have lived and have a respite for sheer forgetting. Happiness, in the vulgar sense, is just a holiday experience. The life-long happiness lies in being used by life; hurt by life, driven and goaded by life, replenished and overjoyed with life, fighting for life’s sake. That is real happiness. In the undergoing, a large part of it is pain." -- D.H. Lawrence (September 11, 1885–March 2, 1930) All works from the 'Dissecting Gravity' series are created on paper mounted wood panels artfully painted & splashed with many layers of pure watercolors. The colorful designs of the trees are created with collaged litter and recycled junk mail, as a gentle reminder that if we do not stop trashing the planet, trees will not grow from our garbage in the future. The overall result is an aesthetically alluring composition with a hidden message about protecting our planet. Linda Klein has developed her own unique process for adhering high quality watercolor paper purchased in large rolls onto wood panels. The entire piece is finished with two coats of archival satin varnish, creating a contemporary but natural look. The edges are natural varnished wood. No framing required. This is a diptych. Each panel is 47H X 23.5W X 2D This Original is currently available through The PASSDOOR Gallery with two locations in Sonoma and Santa Rosa, California. https://www.thepassdoor.net/ Prints Available through Saatchi via the "Prints" tab.
