©️Manic Endings (2020) By CLT_Abstracts, 1/1
Mixed media on canvas
Size: 20” x 20”/ 51cm x 51cm
This painting came about through conversations with a friend through the dark times in the midst of the covid 19 lockdown. We both wanted the situation to come to an end and to find out what life was going to look like on the other side.
For this piece I knew I wanted to work with a vivid combination of blue and pink, as they are my go-to happy colours, the mark I made with the pink reflected back at me as some kind of symbol similar to a rune perhaps, this shape and rune theme has continued through to other pieces and is a natural mark I seem to make when in an energetic state whilst painting. In this piece it creates a pleasing flow across the painting and the delicate nature of the gold leaf adds light but also tells the story of how mental health can fluctuate with light and dark moments leaving us feeling fragile. I’ve also added some interference effect paint around the corners which make the piece shine and alter with the light.
