Description of "Ave Spices Paintings" Inspiration Behind the Work: The "Ave Spices Paintings" are deeply rooted in my fascination with the ancient spice routes. These age-old trails witnessed not just the trade of spices but were the arteries of cultures, ideas, and stories. Spices, being the treasure of old worlds, became the metaphorical muse for these artworks, symbolizing both history and the zest of life. Intended Impact on the Viewers: Each painting aims to be more than just a visual delight. My hope is that viewers are transported to bygone eras, sensing the allure of ancient bazaars and the whispers of traders long past. I want them to feel the intertwining of nostalgia and discovery, of familiarity and mystery. Choice of Medium, Subject Matter, and Style: The choice of medium was essential to give depth and texture reminiscent of the rugged terrains these spices once traveled. The subject matter, spices, connects our modern world to ancient history, representing both sustenance and luxury, everyday and exotic. The style, with its delicate brushstrokes and vivid hues, was chosen to mirror the finesse of nature's designs and the intricate tales that spices have woven through time.
