Description
The simplicity of this painting brings a sense of peace and balance, perfect for adding a touch of feng shui to your home. Feng shui literally means "wind and water." Its roots are 5,000 years old. Feng shui seeks to promote prosperity, good health, and general well being by examining how energy, qi, pronounced "chee," flows through a particular room, house, building, or garden.
The little bonsai tree is happy in it's copper bowl. Bonsai is a Japanese art form using trees grown in containers.
The technique I used in this painting was done by layering tissue paper onto the canvas with a base color of red acrylic acting as my glue. This creates a wonderful texture. After this layer dries I start to build colors on top of the base using green-gold, unbleached titanium white, yellow ocher, burnt siena and metallic gold and copper. I paint the subject on top of this abstract background. By keeping the subject simple and using the same colors as the background the paintings take on a spiritual effect.
