Deborah Elizabeth, "Organic Matters," 2018

acrylic on canvas

Reception on Friday, February 23 from 7 to 9 pm.

We are very pleased to present Deborah Elizabeth this month as our guest artist.

Since the age of 5, colour, line and texture have influenced me.  As an eternal student of architecture and nature, it has been a self induced lifetime study.  Patience and a steady hand has drawn me through my years to a new adventure with acrylic inks and paints on raw canvas.  

"Winter gone on too long cries for relief and colour. I found neon acrylics and started to produce large pieces that reflected beautiful colour in a room from winter's light. Mood enlightenment. The organic nature of working with these liquid acrylics on raw canvas becomes magic with time. The effect causes my onlookers to set back and stare for a while.

There is a rhythm and flow; music to the eyes. The colour becomes infused into the open fabric creating a "batik" look and feel. My work is a well-orchestrated work that includes all I see, envision and feel...because; nature is the influence of all. How we interpret it matters. Therefore, what I humbly present is entitled Organic Matters"
