Rhythms and Sparks coastal painting on paper with its bold deep blue

with its bold deep blue setting

teeming with abundance - and that I am part of it

powerful and gentle - it's around 60-70% of what we are

Kintsugi is a method of repairing broken pottery using gold or silver

And yet when we go to the sea it's always familiar

Rhythms and Sparks coastal painting on paper with its bold deep blueThe title comes from one of my own poems, and suits the lively energy of this little painting, with its 'sparks' of silver leaf and the repeating rhythm of the shapes. It feels like it's dancing, following its own tune and finding joy in making up the steps a good reminder for life! I see this brightening up a kitchen corner, or somewhere you'll see it often for a little energy boost. Painting size: 30 x 30 cm 12 x 12 in Mixed media on wood panel
