Description
“Subtle Burst”
The original was painted in acrylic on a board left over from another project. I liked the results so much that I captured it with my camera. So it became photo-art of a lovely flower as viewed from the window (vaguely referred to in the image)here in my studio here in Asheville, North Carolina.
The soft hues of north light helped when the original photo turned to contemporary paintography art digital rendering and via the thread of interest that runs through what I paint on canvas, or on paper, or in a digital way.
As I worked out a series of graphics as “prompts” for a friend who was having a hard time relaxing, I came across the idea of “subtle burst” during a stroll in the garden. So the idea for this image with its curves, petals, and linear bits in a gentle color field arrived to be combined in abstract elements. And it worked.
This blend of hues and abstract elements she later told me helped her to “let go of her unhappy self-chatter and move into a quiet mind.” So this visual story is one of subtle strength- and is symbolic of the courage it takes when facing The Fraught Process of Selection we—each of us-- face every day—that being the choice to be present in each precious moment of life.

THANK YOU.
Within this digital painting, I hope, you too will find the "gestalt" that arrives in a color field but includes certain geometric shapes, repeated patterns and added textures. The piece was created while, in the background, a Strauss waltz played. Zsanan Studio Notes. P.S. This might make a really nice shower curtain.. I create from what is around me, or from an inner landscape arrived on a journey with an insistent muse and a photo hunt. I translate the photo into mixed media format, reaching out for the story or metaphor with digital manipulation to create the narrative as texture, patterns, repetition, and "post-painterly-abstraction fauve-wave" bits meet- sometimes even becoming a collage.
In this paintography piece, the juxtaposition of color with changing light symbolizes positive change through envisioning different perspectives. Each of the images in this series bases its tale on the concept of Change with Compassion.
