“darling, the moon is still the moon in all of its phases”
– -isra al-thibeh
Many artists are wary to change their “style” – to do something different than they have done before. They worry that people will reject the “new”, that they are comfortable with what has been.
I am not one of these artists – I enjoy exploring, I enjoy making different things, I enjoy making fine art and functional art. I don’t want to do the same thing over and over again – how boring.
So if you think I’m “all over the place” just know – it is all just me.
Key Features
Key Features of “Moonphase”:
- Celestial Symbolism: The row of yellow dots at the top resembles moon phases, symbolizing cycles, time, and natural rhythm. This adds a cosmic, reflective dimension to the artwork.
- Layered Colour Palette:
- Cool Blues and Greens: Dominating the composition, these colours evoke a sense of calm and tranquillity, reminiscent of sky and earth.
- Warm Earthy Browns: At the top, they create contrast, adding warmth and a sense of groundedness.
- Textural Complexity: The layered textures bring depth and richness, suggesting layers of meaning or hidden landscapes. The rough and smooth areas invite closer inspection, enhancing the tactile quality of the piece.
- Geometric Patterns:
- Horizontal Bands: These create structure and stability, guiding the eye across the composition.
- White Rectangles: At the bottom, these add rhythm and repetition, suggesting movement or a visual “beat” that contrasts with the organic textures.
- Natural Harmony: The blend of organic and geometric forms evokes a balance between nature and structure, chaos and order—reinforcing the theme of life’s cycles.
- Emotional Impact: The painting’s combination of cool and warm tones, along with its symbolic elements, elicits a sense of contemplation and serenity, inviting the viewer to reflect on their own journey through life’s phases.
This painting of stripes captivates with its harmonious blend of color, texture, and symbolism, making it a standout addition for collectors who value both aesthetic beauty and deeper meaning.
