Mistral 12

$900.00

acrylic on cradled birch panel
11 x 14 x 1.5 i

The Mistral series draws inspiration from the cold waters of Ladys Cove (Marblehead, Massachusetts) at low tide. Amongst the abstract splotches hides a lady crab (Ovalipes ocellatus) smaller than the nail on a pinky finger. The paintings explore personal perspective, influence, indifference, and our place in a broader world.

Mistral 12 is part of a triptych that includes Mistral 13 and Mistral 14. Paintings by Rococo masters Boucher and Fragonard and plastic sculptures by Brent Hayden influence the color pallet. It features various brush techniques, most prominently blown acrylic. Starbursts of different sizes and shapes result from varying the paint viscosity. The surface of the painting is highly glossy, the result of meticulous varnish.

The backside of the panel includes a study which directly informs later pieces in the series such as Mistral 30 and Mistral 39.
