Description

“Iris in Lavender”

“Iris in Lavender” originated from a pen and ink sketch to an illustration-watercolor image -then to be photographed, then digitally painted. (Quite a journey.)This is an amazing American Iris bringing joy to my cabin garden right here in Asheville, North Carolina. It is another one in the “Nature’s Amazing Energies” series.

This is a abstract paintography piece... contemporary art continuing the thread of interest in nature that runs through what I paint on canvas, or on paper, or in a digital way. The visual story emphasizes the fraught process of selection we—each of us-- face every day—that being the choice to look for beauty and possibility in what is around us.

THANK YOU

Theme and Symbolism: : Mystery and expectation. The juxtaposition of color with changing light symbolizes positive change. The soft mauve-to-purple palette represents strength- (historic longevity despite the delicate nature of the petals of this perennial.). The flower in full-bloom symbolizes generosity and loving kindness ... a crossing into nonlocal space ... another place... awakening awareness of our place in the web of life.


Story and Method: : I create from what is around me. I translate photos into mixed media often abstract expressionist digital renderings such as you see in this piece. I reach out for the story or metaphor to share in a narrative via texture, patterns, repetition that meet in the feeling of collage.

This piece creates its narrative via texture, patterns, repetition, and "post-painterly-abstraction fauve-wave" bits that meet in the feeling of an integrated collection of concepts and forms... with a feeling of collage.
