Following the Flow
Abstract art in layered materials, saturated colors, and glass-like luster.
The artist began to work with a variety of materials with the goal of creating abstract art with a greater intensity, saturation and luster in colors not generally seen in the art world. She approaches each canvas with a general vision of what she wants to create, but, with every application of paint, she follows the flow, deciding whether to intercede with the movement of the colors on the canvas or let the painting evolve organically as the colors interact and settle. Depending on the outcome of these initial steps, a layering method is employed, achieving a glass-like result with saturated color creating unique optical properties that combine both intricate detail at close range and great depth from a distance. Some canvases have as few as three layers and others as many as 30 layers, but all display rich colors and luminous hues. The collection is a compilation of diverse paintings, each unique in motif, style, content and palette.
The artist concentrates more on the reflections of light on texture while keeping the same intensity of color that media provides.
