Blue Bell 52x52 Painting

Abstract Original Painting: Acrylic, watercolor, gesso on hand-stretched canvas, 52x52 inches and ready to hang. BACK: Signed with full name. SERIES: Bloomlands. STATEMENT: "Bloomlands" series came to be out of the need for quiet, delicacy, and impermanent experiences. Like a touch of an insect on my skin. Here, the flower, the petal, like a see-through x-rayed surface, is the pure essence of life, fleeting from sureness and foreverness. Some florals are old and losing the fullness, gaining rips and tears, still thirsting water. A bit mature and at the same time more fragile. And when you’re fragile, you love life even more. This is what I’m after in my Bloomlands series. To capture the moment of a momentary beauty. So here and yet so passing by all at the same time.
