BREATHE OUT / BREATHE IN - Diptych
Acrylic and faux gold leaf on stretched canvas
'BREATHE OUT - You exhale. Your very life giving nature bound up in every atom, a library of life. A spiral of community, of sharing, of mysteries wound together awaiting discovery, to be teased apart, untangled'
'BREATHE IN - I inhale. The first moment of awareness invading my lungs, although you have sustained me eons before. The beginning of a duet, to be sung forevermore.
Exhale. Inhale. Life.'
My Baroque series is influenced by my love of classical music and the depth of emotion found there.
Each painting captures a series of thoughts that I ponder during my painting.
'Breathe Out Breathe In' features the soft blues, whites, and pale eucalyptus colours, with deep blue swirls and splatters, topped off with gold leaf highlights. Full of texture, lyrical brushstrokes and layers.
