Once upon a time, there was this white canvas panel sitting on my easel. I decided that it shouldn't remain white any longer. I got out different colors of ink and smeared them around. After they dried I dripped Titanium White Airbrush paint on the top.
I decided not to bring any of those faces forward. I turned canvas upside down to see a different perspective. There were more faces! By this time I'm intrigued and getting into the mystery of this piece. There is one section piece in the middle of the canvas, 2/3rd of the way up. There is an eye, with the pupil and the iris a clear as a bell. Can you see it? I couldn't resist any longer. Needless to say~that became my starting point.

This piece took me "off-center", out of the realm of my normal way of creating. I feel my art can be safe sometimes and my desire is to learn to loosen up.

"POLARITY" |
She is titled "Polarity" because within her outward appearance is a combination of gentle and soft in conjunction with a little rebellion. The truth is, we all have multiple facets of who we are.
Am I to learn from this piece to loosen up a little more?
Not just in my art but in my life, as well?
Now that's a whole other thought to contemplate.
“Polarity, or action and reaction, we meet in every part of nature; in darkness and light; in heat and cold; in the ebb and flow of water; in male and female; in the equation of quantity and quality; in the fluids of the animal body; in the systole an”
