Slow Tide mixed media painting on Canvas

Slow Tide, is my impression of a tropical beach. Having grown up in Fiji I feel a sense of calm whenever I see these intense aquas and blues. This is my impression of the constant movement of the tide and the changing light and colour this creates.
This painting is a mixed media artwork incorporating, acrylic paints, inks, mediums and a satin varnish. I use a textured towel with paint and glazes to give this work life. It is a very messy business, one I developed when I was designing textiles.

Has strung back for easy hanging.

George is a multi-media artist based in Sydney Australia, with paintings and mixed-media works represented in private and public collections globally.

Trained in formal figurative practices and techniques, honed over three decades in international textile and fashion design, George now paints seven days a week, loves turning mistakes into ideas, and is equally adept observing formal rules and breaking them for a reason.

His work is energetic, calming and whimsical, and reflects the semi-tropical colours of his native New Zealand, a Fijian childhood and the dazzling colours of Australian nature and urban life. He incorporates layers in mixed media, acrylics, collage and glazes, applied with brushes, sponges and rough-textured towels and sometimes dyeing natural canvas first to create background and depth.

George’s art is fluid and uplifting, with signature collections including The Funk, Freehand, Optimist Heart, Silent Paradise, News, and the Gradual series.
