New Original Artwork Release 'Pure Imagination' - (Batik Watercolour)
“There is no life I know
To compare with pure imagination
Living there, you’ll be free
If you truly wish to be”
I shared a post a couple of weeks ago on Instagram where I mentioned that my word for this year is ‘Wonder’.
I’m constantly in a sense of awe and wonder of the natural world surrounding me. But this year I also want to let go into the childlike wonder of my imagination. I’ll be releasing a collection of original artworks and prints throughout the year under this theme.
Here is my first offering ‘Pure Imagination’ an original Batik Watercolour on Rice Paper.
Varnished and secured on stretched canvas. Ready to hang.
Dimensions : 24 inches x 36 inches (60.96cms x 91.44cms)
“Anyone who knows me, knows that I love peacocks. Throughout the ages they have become a symbol of re-growth, rejuvenation, royalty, respect, honour and integrity. Often coming into my life in dreams and surprising moments, the iridescent colours transport me into another realm. They are a reminder of the beauty and grace that surrounds us.”
Here are a few progress shots of my process
Batik Watercolour is a very involved process where I build layers of watercolour and wax.
