Free Love - original heart painting

Free Love - original heart painting

Regular price £250.00 Sale

Free Love is part of an ongoing series of large scale heart paintings that addresses the concept of love.  

 

Using a layered, intuitive process, this painting addresses through paint and random words my thoughts on the idea of “Free Love” ...

 

The interplay of written words that are sometimes layered over adds to the concept.    Visible words are meant to be read and pondered.  “Freedom to be and to love and love as you wish - unjudged, accepted, LOVED.”  Another written musing says, “Freedom and being able to connect with those you love and to be open to other viewpoints - NOT divided, connection.” And at the bottom right of the heart, I write another thought - “Freedom to wear your love as a badge of honor."  XO, M.E. 

 

These painting surprise me as I work - sometimes the paint does the talking, sometimes the words that I put down does, and sometimes they even seem to speak to each other.  I take my time - I work fast, then slow.  I sit back, evaluate, then move back into the painting quickly.  

 

What I’m most proud of with this series of paintings is how the hearts truly bring out a sense of emotion as well as discovery.  When I hung them up for show recently, I couldn’t help but feel super excited that the color and scale of this work really brought a whole new sense of play to the space.

 

The edges of the painting are raw and layered with paint, my favorite way.  If you prefer to have them finished all in white or another color, please let me know.
