Description

“A Break from the Storm ” No. 3

Here is another new painting from the miniatures collection. Painted on a 4x4 canvas block, each miniature is multi-layered. It is sketched, painted, waxed, carved out and completed in a textured acrylic impasto presentation. The narratives invite your interpretation of inner/outer landscapes. There is a persistent focus on patterns and bold or unusual color.

“A Break from the Storm ” No. 3 is a visual metaphor for vulnerability in chaos, strength of heart, and life at the edge. At the end of the jetty (dock) a vulnerable couple await what might happen next. I relied on a Textured Acrylic Impasto, Modern Impressionism, Abstract Expressionism, Narrative, and Digital Paintography with a Twist to create an atmosphere of contemporaneous dread and possibility in this piece.

“A Break from the Storm ” depicts those two figures -(symbolic of vulnerability)- ready to face the unknown together despite the storm clouds on the horizon. According to ancient Roman mythology, Neptune had superhuman strength , speed, and stamina and resistance to physical injury. Will Neptune provide a safe “Break from the Storm” and so prevent their possible demise? -- the viewer may further narrate this tale.

“A Break from the Storm ” is an example of Modern Impressionism and New Mixed Media with references figurative abstraction. It is narrative inviting you to discover your own expression of this tale. I hope you will find a connection here - linger awhile, possibly start a conversation about the elements - spaces, lines, textures and rhythms and contemporary themes that speak to you.

BACK STORY: “A Break from the Storm ” began as a photo of the rocky Oregon Coast. After a pen-and ink sketch, it took shape as an acrylic on canvas, later to be photographed once more. At that point it evolved into mixed media, modern contemporary (new media) paintography. When I took a photo of the final iteration and subjected it to the whims of my muse-(and computer)- here in my studio in Asheville, North Carolina the result was this digital rendering.

It continues a theme that runs through my work : Nature, metaphor, and the fraught process of selection we—each of us— face daily : The choice for awareness of “rocky shores” and the need to navigate wisely.
