VIEW IN MY ROOM
I titled this work "Newly wed" because it's the first painting I completed after getting married. Getting back into the studio after our wedding was a radical feeling. I felt with my new last name I could invent a new identity. I thought, "I'm a different girl. Now I'm connected to another person for life. What does my new self create? Who do I chose to be?" There were so many options. I spent a long time choosing my color palette- I went with a very simplified color palette (for me). It was hard for me to stick to because I tend to over indulge in color. This canvas is also rather large scale compared to what I typically paint. While I was painting I felt freedom and confidence. I enjoyed the different brushes and tools and played with their differences. I enjoyed seeing the painting evolve and the shapes or blocks of color that came out. I hope the viewer will feel calm, positive, happy, radiant, confidence and security when they look at this painting because that is the energy I put into it. I chose Acrylic paint because it dries faster and am able to work in a shorter session allowing layers to dry. My ideas come quickly and I like to get them out. Abstract expressionism is a form of art that's all about the process for me. After working a 9-5 job day-in and day-out, I feel freedom and a sweet release to play in art.
