About this painting
I painted Birthday Surprise in celebration of my birthday a few years ago. It’s actually part of a limited series of 6 paintings within my larger collection of Little Gems.
I created the fun, lighthearted paintings with leftover fragments of wrapping paper from my daughter's birthday presents from a few weeks earlier.
The painting process involved layering the collage with gesso, scraping back using a rubber shaper, then adding in some new darker collage materials for contrast. The fun and challenge was balancing the shapes and integrating them all together with the paint gestures.
These small paintings help me hone my skills and are made for pure fun and joy. I make them for myself and create them with love in creative bliss.
