Garden Sonata
10 x10 inches
acrylic and mixed media
$425 framed
I lived next door to an accomplished cello player. Very late in the night, when his children were all asleep, he would sit in his attic, pick up his beautiful instrument and play. Because it was summertime his windows were open, as were mine and the most beautiful music would drift down to me through the quiet, warm air.
This painting has underlying texture built up from tissue paper and acrylic medium. I add numerous thin layers of paint mixed on the palette until I have just what I want. That is when the final collage elements are added.
