“Hibiscus in Bloom”
2019 Acrylic on Canvas
This piece received Honorable Mention in the December 2019 “Botanicals” Art Room Gallery online exhibition.
This unframed abstract painting is a meticulously-created original acrylic pour painting on a 18″ x 24″ x 3/4″ stretched canvas. The medium-textured duck canvas is triple primed with acid-free acrylic gesso and hand stretched over kiln-dried stretcher bars from environmentally managed forests.
Colors include light periwinkle, dark periwinkle, olive green, teal, metallic gold and titanium white.
I use professional-grade paints and pouring mediums. My technique includes pouring, palette knife and brushwork. This painting has visible brushstrokes and texture.
The canvas can be displayed both vertically and horizontally, so orientation is a personal preference. The edges are painted so it can be hung without a frame, and the art is varnished with a satin finish. Hanger will be provided.
Each painting is signed on the back and created with a grateful mindset.
