I'm attracted to complex layers, vibrant colors and abstraction. This piece is full of texture and unique composition. Florals are always a source of calm and a catalyst to grounding myself. The purpose of this painting for the viewer to invoke curiosity, intrigue and a since of calm. The twine and kraft paper vase is meant to center the composition ands provides an anchor point for the eyes to rest on as the viewer takes in the art and begins to feel at ease.
A Sailors Memories
$2200
Acrylic on wood panel
45 × 76 inches
This painting is an abstracted version of my dreams and memories from my time serving as an arctic sailor in the Coast Guard during the 90's. I traveled to the North and South pole on the Coast Guard Cutter Polar Sea. The blues used represent the uniform I wore and the open sea, there are bits and pieces of the crane, the small boat, some of the small islands that we past, the port side walkway on the outside of the boat. It's the feeling of cold air on my face, the warmth from the forever sunrise and the calm that comes from experiencing the beauty of the varied ice floes that the shipped passed. If you look to the center and top/bottom corners, you can see the inference of a camera viewpoint guide. I carried a camera everywhere we sailed during my time in the Coast Guard. This painting is all of those fond feelings offered to the world on canvas.
