Bouquet in Blue

Bouquet In Blue

4.75” x 4.25” x .75

Mixed media- acrylic paint and carving on recycled oak board.

This carved painting was inspired by a bouquet by Oak and Olive Flowers.

My process began by layering gesso on oak boards. I then covered the white surface with blue paint and made and observational drawing with my carving tool. After the initial carving was done I layered paint and carving until the painting was finished.

All of my paintings are finished with an archival varnish to ensure longevity.

I recommend putting the painting in a space without direct sunlight to ensure color preservation.
