12" x 24" Oil on Heavy Duty Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Still Life Painting
"Tears of Joy" didn't happen overnight. I had originally painted a landscape with aspens on the canvas in a thin wash. Not satisfied with the colorful landscape, I mixed a muddy pinky-beige color and started all over. I loosely painted a vase and long stemmed roses, making it abstract. After looking at it for a couple of months, I put a few more touches on it with thinned-down paint, letting the paint run down the canvas. I have suggested a vase filled with water and flowers, letting the viewer's eye fill in the negative space. I limited the colors to pinks, corals and greens. Framing is optional-all four sides of the canvas are painted. Here is a close-up of one of the flowers.
I thought that the drips on the canvas looked like tears....but not sad tears. "Tears of Joy" is looking for a new home! The contemporary still life painting would make a lovely statement in a bedroom or bathroom. Contact Kay for purchasing info. Thanks for looking! Kay
