About The Artwork

The artwork features two stylized female figures against a yellow backdrop. These figures share a joint headdress that extends across the top of the canvas like a flat canopy decorated with lush green leaves and ripe, peachy fruits. The figure on the left is adorned with a red polka-dot motif on her upper torso, while her counterpart to the right is cloaked in a solid blue color with light patterned detailing. The skin of both figures takes on hues of blue and green, subtly blending with the patterned motifs that adorn them. Three colorful birds complement the scene, two perched on the tree-like headdress and one on a figure's hand, with their plumage echoing the vibrancy of the fruit above. Below, both figures merge into a single form, their bodies transitioning into a textured, abstract landscape at the bottom of the canvas. The landscape is tumultuous and rich in hues of blues and purples, suggesting a dreamlike or otherworldly terrain. The overall effect is one of surreal harmony, intertwining the organic elements of flora and fauna with human forms.

I can not remember a time when I didn’t love to create art. Even as a small child, all I wanted to do was create art. I explored all types of mediums and ended up becoming a figurative and portrait painter. I mix mediums in my paintings, incorporating paper, pastels, oil, acrylics, and spray paint. The materials I choose are determined by the technique I want to use and the end-result I want to achieve. My work often pushes the boundaries between contemporary surrealism and impressionism. I juxtapose real and implied texture with organic forms creating a very unique style. The figures in my paintings visually push and pull the foreground to the background alternating between two-dimensional a three-dimensional form. My work focuses on exploring womanhood, celebrating female strength and wisdom. I do have personal symbolism in my work, but I want the viewer to interpret my work by projecting their own story into my work. As a child of a military father, I was born in Germany and spent my first six years there. On every opportunity, my family explored the castles, museums, epic landscapes, and forests of Germany. I have fond memories of the grand architecture, sculptures, and the multitude of gardens. My family frequently went to art museums. I remember always getting in trouble for being fixated on a work of art and not keeping up with my family as they wandered from painting to painting. I loved studying the brushstrokes, use of colors and the way the master artists used contrasts of lighting in their paintings. As an adult, I still find myself studying works of art with the same enthusiasm and sense of awe as I had as a child. I studied art at the University of Colorado earning a B.A. in Fine Art. After UC, I worked as an educator, showing my artwork at venues around the Phoenix, Arizona area, and doing commissions. I recently retired from a career in education, and spend my new time creating art. Stories about me and my art can be found on social media under the name of Gail A McFarland.
