After yesterday’s more chaotic painting (“Taking it out on Red”), I felt the need to counteract that releasing of negative energy with a more positive message. Today I painted this response, and although it is not without conflict, the calming content and colours are meant to portray a universal scope with a sense of hope, and the beauty and peace that exists outside and alongside of our world’s terror and turmoil.
Today’s painting is “Searching for Peace”… here are some close-up details:
