Shades of cerulean blue oil paint over a textured acrylic background realize a line study composition that was first created with an original freehand linocut. Satin sheen in the blues, more of a matte finish in the cream/whites. Signed on back and side.
In the latter slideshow images, South L.A. based mosaic arts nonprofit Piece by Piece interpreted a section of my painting REALIZE in mosaic and vintage stamps from the 1940's in this stunning blue artwork, HOMAGE TO REALIZE. "Our mission is to empower residents who have experienced homelessness or economic insecurity by providing free mosaic art workshops enabling them to build confidence, earn supplementary income, promote wellness and an improved quality of life." - Piece by Piece, www.piecebypiece.org
