"A Sea of Billow and Spray." I have such fond memories of creating this painting over several months. The first step involved the bright blue in the center line of the painting, using a new kind of paint (Lefranc & Bourgeois Flashe Vinyl) and spending a while thinking about how to balance that saturation effectively. This piece required so much patience on my end, waiting weeks between layers to make sure the work maintained harmony.
In many ways, my art practice is my development, too - I am not naturally a wildly patient person, but the process of moving slowly and doing things right in my paintings overflows to so many areas of my life.
The title is from Jane Eyre, my favorite book. As I was naming my first collection, I thought about how to describe life lived by the sea, and found myself unable to stop thinking about this story. This title is specifically from the opening chapter, where Jane is caught reading behind the curtain.
I hope this piece inspires you to have patience with yourself and others, and to trust the process.
A Sea of Billow and Spray is an original abstract painting. Created with dozens of layers of transparent paint to form a deeply textured composition, this piece is inspired by the vibrant colors of Alki Beach. A one-of-a-kind original from my first collection.
This piece is 24x30 inches.
