Painting, Watercolor on Paper
Size: 16.5 W x 23 H x 0.1 D in
This artwork was created for an exhibition titled Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fonder, which was exhibited in two gallery locations in New Brunswick, Canada. I chose an absence of color to mark the loss of the familiar I have experienced over the past decade of living internationally. The bittersweet reality of losing a sense of home continues to play a role in my life. Ultimately, I have come to realize the only home I will have is the one I create for myself. This painting is not intended to represent any image or thing. The title suggests a feeling of elation, joy, or satisfaction. The painting was created with a background of a black ink wash and sea salt to create a textural effect. In the foreground, there are many repetitive marks made using black and white watercolors. There are several subtle brushstrokes of silver ink that are metallic and catch the light. An accent of pearl mica is applied in tiny bits around the composition to catch the light and glimmer. The effect is beautiful and organic. This is the first painting in a series of three with the same title. It is on Fabriano cold pressed 400gm2 paper and will fit a 16x20" mat opening. The actual size of the paper is 23"Hx16.5"W.
