Lately, I have been feeling unsettled and anxious due to the state of turmoil in the world. In these times of uncertainly, I feel that it is especially important to work on developing an inner state of calmness. My personal approach involves regular meditation and documenting my feelings through art. Being in the nature has a soothing affect on me; it helps me process and reflect on what’s going on around me, anchors me in the moment and connects me to my own inner stillness. This still life painting embodies my response to the chaos around me and the feeling of immersion in nature.
For this painting I drew inspiration from the Australian native flora, and earthy autumn colours. I particularly loved painting the beautiful textural leaves and tried to capture their dancing gesture by focusing on tiny intricate details. This practice was incredibly healing for me and I hope that anyone who views this artwork feels the warmth and tranquility that I tried to convey.
- This painting was completed on a professional quality Australian made canvas and framed in Australian plantation solid Oak float frame.
