The crossing
In this series, color takes center stage. The grayness of the pandemic pushed me into a body of work marked by light and hope, meant to share and ease each person’s journey. Color became the true subject of this series. Inspired by the intricate weaving of branches, I played with layering hues, tones, and shades… Lines and colors come to life, energizing the gaze.
I build color relationships through accumulation, saturation, layering, and spontaneous juxtaposition. Using acrylic in thin washes, I create successive layers on the surface. This process gives rise to plays of light and shadow, subtle depths, and contrasts between saturation and transparency. One can glimpse light filtering through the forest or shimmering on the water’s surface.
