Creating Joy
Creating Joy
Acrylic on Canvas
20" h x 20" w
"This piece brings together my two most favourite subjects to paint - birch trees and poppies. I love the way I can create realistic looking tree bark and branches with the palette knife. The tree comes to life with each stroke of the knife. Poppies hold a special place in my heart for the freedom and remembrance they represent. I paint both of these subjects often, and it brings me great joy to put them on the same canvas!"
Life is complicated and each day brings new challenges. In contrast, painting gives me a special comfort; an unique pleasure that invites and invigorates. I use a variety of palette knives on canvas and board to blend colour with passion, texture with movement, and simplicity with intrigue.
