Original artwork description:

I visit Towner Gallery in Eastbourne regularly, and an exhibition there of Paule Vezelay's work has had a huge impact on me. I felt it as soon as I walked into the first room, and have been back a number of times to take a closer look. I don't want to replicate what I see there, but I feel that the way she used forms in their own right on a canvas has really impacted my confidence to do the same. Still based on flowers, but more loosely so, this is a painting which seeks to blend flat pattern with the idea of "in front" and "behind" also, using colours and shapes to lead the eye around the canvas. I absolutely LOVED painting this piece - as I was working on it, I could feel a new chapter starting in the story of my painting life. I work in acrylics as they allow me to paint layers and glazes, with the finished effect being luminous and busy. The edges of this painting are painted in the same deep blue of the background, and it could be displayed as it is, using the wooden stretcher on the reverse of the canvas, or you could choose to attach a hanging wire, or have it framed, depending on your personal preference. "Everything Matters" is painted on a Windsor and Newton canvas, varnished, signed on the reverse and comes with a certificate of authenticity. Please note - import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost. Thank you.
