Mint Slice

Mint Slice - A little after dinner fun. This painting is so full of joy and life. It captures all the laughter and warmth of having some of your favourite people over for dinner, chatting and sharing jokes and laughs over a meal. It makes me think of my best friend and moments of us sneaky back to the table to have the sweet treats while everyone else is chatting away.

Original Artwork painted on a hand stretched canvas by a local framer in Adelaide - South Australia. Floated in a hand made Tasmanian Oak frame. Acrylic. Signature on front and back. Wire on back, ready to hang.

Lena Baumgartner is self-taught and creates large scale abstract expressive works. Looking at Lena's works and you feel everything first - bold colours, soft gesture and the pulse of emotion. She creates thick, texturally brush strokes that you want to reach out and touch. She often pairs striking and contrasting colours together to provoke emotional responses when viewing her artwork from afar. Her practice is mood-led with restless days drawing in the greens and blues while frenetic days are filled with vibrant pinks or even muted neutrals. Sometimes the compositions are clean, other times they're messy and alive. She has actively participated in both solo and group exhibitions, showcasing her talent and unique way of mixing and blending colours on canvas. You can also see her artwork on the South Australian Renmark Gin brand - 23rd Street, Mulberry Gin bottle.
