Artist's Notes
"BOAT" (2017)
This was my very first acrylic painting. Looking at a large canvas and having never painted before, I thought, "Where to begin?" One has to generate an idea - I am usually full of them… but I was unsure how to proceed."Errrrrr, this is hard" I thought. "What am I doing?"
My husband Andre and I both love water, especially kayaking, so I started with the water….
I decided that I just needed to start getting used to brushes in my hand instead of jewelry tools. I tried to let go of any preconceived notions and just go with the flow. Soon I was creating movement. I could feel it. I was especially enjoying the textures and the way ideas seemed to come out of nowhere.
As I got used to using the brushes, understanding the various shades and shadows, I realized the painting had a Caribbean feeling… and that is how the boat ended up on the shore of the pink beach, adorned with actual shells collected in Barbuda, West Indies.
After creating this painting I went on to do more canvases, creating more works of art with heArtful touches.
I was falling in love with my new ability to paint.
Now my discerning eye is constantly making me wonder, “Can I paint that?”
