Aracena (2023) Original Acrylic Painting by Melanie Crawford

I believe that art is about connection, an expression of the journey of life and the offering of a higher understanding of communication. I am always curious and experimenting, yet find my process to be the most integral part of my artmaking. Layers, thick texture, drips, colours, welcomed mistakes and the travelling of paint build the story of my paintings. My process reveals, conceals, and re-examines what we define as beauty like collecting evidence of life lived over time; the peeling of paint on walls and the hidden potential residing in discarded remnants. I am fascinated by the beauty found in organic marks made naturally without overthinking or correcting.
