About This Painting

This playful abstract painting was inspired by the skirt I saw a woman wearing at a craft fair. I was visiting a friend of mine on Hornby Island and we had gone on a bike trip for the day. We stopped at the fair and the colours and pattern of this woman’s skirt caught my eye. It had a chartreuse green and a robin’s eggshell blue, all surrounded by grey. And I just got really inspired by the pattern, so I went on a retreat and took only the colours in the skirt.

The colours used in this painting are a bright chartreuse green, which is like a lime yellow-green, and a bit of cerulean blue. Surrounding these 2 colours are lots of blacks, whites, and greys combined in very painterly gestures and blended around the coloured spherical forms that look like little stones or rocks. The painting has a very playful flow to it and is a very simple abstract painting.

My retreat resulted in this painting as well as 2 other abstract paintings of the chartreuse skirt. The paintings are part of my Little Gems Series, a prolific series of small paintings that are created for fun, with joy, and for creative practice.
