27.5 x 55 in / 70 x 140 cm mixed media oil painting "Hope is like a tiny seed planted deep within your heart, waiting and willing to spring forth. Filling every moment up with the hope of what is not yet here, but will for sure come, is like watering the roots of the flowers yet to bloom. Hope is like a Sunflower. We are full of life and strength, even when we are surrounded by darkness. And like a sunflower is often pointing in the direction of the sun, it could be seen as a sign of having great faith. It reminds us to always look to the light, to the good and to the truth." Painting made on 1.6 inch / 4 cm gallery wrapped canvas with use of different techniques and mediums. The Piece includes textured collage for a more three-dimensional look. Flow and mystery of inks, visual textures of pattern and real textures from a collage create variety of form. Layers of transparent glazes and finishing touches of oils make the painting pop with vibrant colors and take you into the canvas.
