Flowery Language 9

Sheila Grabarsky

Acrylics on canvas, composition extended around perimeter, impasto, textured. This highly colored painting is as exciting as my own imagining of a garden. I am not a gardener but I find my brush always creating gardens from my heart. I try hard to paint a nonobjective work but as soon as I dip my brush into a green and step back I intuitively see those forms evolving in a floral way. Perhaps it’s the lyrical, gestural nature of my strokes.

I paint because I bleed Alizarin Crimson.

 

As a small child I painted a yellow sun into a blue sky and CREATED GREEN! I remain awe-struck at this  always-new discovery of color creation and juxtaposition. 

My process is “reduction”; painting till the canvas is over-full of movement and connections then obliterating that world-chaos until the becomes a complete and orderly composition. As I would love the world to be; composed, organized. I am excited by the evolution of shapes and the discovery of how movement impacts each of these shapes to become cohesive.
