Original artwork description:

This abstract floral painting suggests the summer garden and is paired with another painting of mine, Come See the Roses on the Moony Night. There's great complexity in the details of the flowers in particular, made through a process of infusing modeling paste with pigment, then painting over it, and when hard, sanding it down with a rotary sander until patterns of line and color emerge. I am interested in paintings that work both as viewed from a distance, and as viewed closer in, and with this painting, that balance is achieved.

Materials used:

acrylic paint, acrylic medium, MDF (maximum density fiber) board
