I had been meaning to post but haven't really been online much lately. I've just cleaned my brushes, made a cup of coffee and thought that I'd sit down for a moment and share two new paintings that I completed. These two paintings are titled 'The Perseverance of Love' and 'Angelic'. These are each a bundle of abstract roses poised inside minimal white vases. I painted these flowers in a softer light, to capture gentleness with soft brushstrokes and form. 'Angelic' is alittle more bold, in terms of contrast, with dark and light hues of blue while 'The perseverance of Love' is warmer. The titles that I came up with are a combination of wanting to paint something that captures healing and comfort - something to lift one's spirits, while also being stylish. I really wanted to focus more on softness and simplicity in these pieces. 'The Perseverance of Love' is about healing and understanding that even in the face of hardship, love persists and can move mountains. 'Angelic' is similar in meaning but with more of a focus on tranquility and relaxed elegance. Nature holds healing - and so, as an artist, painting nature is very healing. Both paintings have sold.
