Description

“The Kiss of a Purple Iris”

“Kiss of the Purple Iris” originated from a pen and ink sketch and photo to an illustration and watercolor image then digitally painted. 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.

THANK YOU

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.

Theme and Symbolism: : As an artist-storyteller I love the idea of expressing and honoring the power of nature. I chose soft purple tones and broad strokes to create a visual impression of mystery and expectation. I used the soft mauve to purple palette to represent strength and historic longevity despite the delicate nature of the petals of this perennial beauty. I wanted to create a soft and inviting visual impression. There is the symbol of the flower in full-bloom representing generosity and loving kindness ... a crossing into nonlocal space ... another place... another understanding. Additionally, the juxtaposition of color with changing light symbolizes positive change through envisioning what is possible.

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.
