The Pyjama bush (Lobostemon) always attracts my attention with its delicate shades of blue and pink flowers. The pink buds open into bell-shaped flowers. The tips of the petals change into a pale blue colour.
In this work, I combined the Pyjama bush with some fine mountain ferns.
The overall feel of the painting is abstract organic shapes with a lot of natural movement.
This artwork is part of my “Pause series” of paintings:
Pause: To interrupt an activity temporarily before continuing.
To make a brief stop of delay.
To Take a break, wait, …
This is where I am at in my journey as an artist in the early months of 2023. Pause to me, does not mean that I stopped creating! On the contrary – I am working on new artworks daily. To me, Pause mean to take a break before I continue without changing direction. Pause to listen. Pause to see.
I am not sure where this year will take me, but I will keep on spending time in nature, painting God’s creation and follow where He leads.
Sela.
