Exploring the Effortless
"“Exploring the Effortless“ is part of a new series of budding works. The title reflects my new commitment to cultivating more comfort and ease in my life. In this work I explore the use of vibrant colors and contrasting texture from graphite and oil pastel against a flat layer of color. I love using a variety of materials and marks in this series. I am excited about working in this size not only because it’s a challenge but also because I love the feeling you get when you stand in front of a painting and it feels so large that it’s going to swallow you up. The space in this piece is crowded and chaotic but also has a sense of organization, which mirrors what life feels like for me day to day. I am constantly trying to find structure and routine while managing unpredictable symptoms that affect my energy, pain levels and ability to think clearly. Finding a way to paint this experience brings me some peace."
