About The Artwork

“It was such a spring day as breathes into a man an ineffable yearning, a painful sweetness, a longing that makes him stand motionless, looking at the leaves or grass, and fling out his arms to embrace he knows not what.” ― John Galsworthy Wietzie created 'Painful Sweetness’ with a painting knife using a unique impasto technique, which adds texture and movement to express an inner emotional state. Working in a bold, colourful and inventive gestural style, her work is characterized by their luminous layers of colour. Wietzie is inspired by nature and poetry, and uses both to interpret the minutiae that stirs her emotions.

Abstract art can establish a line of communication directly from the artist's inner vision to the viewer's imagination and elicit a specific emotional response. I am inspired by nature and poetry, and I paint the world as I see it- imperfect and in constant change. ​ My work is part of the French Lyrical Abstract art movement, depicted by emotive, expressive, and imaginary compositions that emphasis colour and shape. I create my work through a unique technique of vigorous knife strokes that creates a textured and layered surface full of impasto markings. Thereafter I use sweeping thick movements of paint in a dynamic spontaneous manner that depict the ephemeral nature of light and the passing of time. ​
