Painting - Colour Pencil
Description
This colour pencil painting on Duralar began its nascent journey as a serious intentional study of three butterfly species and, thru a series of distractions, took on a parallel transformational journey of transformation from realism into surrealism. All of my exacting notes and plans for scientific illustration and focused burnishing evolved into a FREEform, childlike Colour exercise designed to transmute pain thru my Art. In retrospect, this painting could not have hoped to be a more accurate depiction of what the actual life process of a butterfly and its multilayered symbolisms mean to me. These showy South American and African beauties lifted my spirits, relieved my anxieties and inspired both a haiku and possible new Group thread: The Haiku and The Image, now seeking a moderator…
“Mind falls to HeArtspace.
Soul arisings stir to greet
Sublime spectra…me!”
~Laurel Adams
NOTE: Within the labeling controversy surrounding Pencilwork, I classify my Colour Pencil renderings as:”PAINTINGS” if the entire paper surface is burnished/painted, fully covering the surface; when paper is used as a background design element, it is a drawing.
