THE THREE BLUES

Kuredu, Orda & Azzura

( AVAILABLE)

During my time as an Art Teacher, I hosted two workshops for my younger students, teaching them the exciting process of "Pour Art", also know as "Pour Painting" or "Flow / Fluid Art". This medium was becoming commercially very popular at the time and still is. In preparation, I spent countless hours researching the various techniques and practicing in my studio. Eventually, after countless unsuccessful attempts, a lot of mess and frustration, I achieved some Eureka moments and began creating some very beautiful, visually fascinating and vibrant paintings. It is safe to say, I got hooked.

One particular exploration of colour, using a spectrum of blues and gold spiked my delight. I had been watching a documentary about underwater caves in various locations around the world and this piece struck a clear resemblance to the deep blue tunnels and caverns of the ancient depths. I promptly replicated the colours and technique a further two times, creating a triptych set, that I framed in dark, hand-made hardwood frames. Spoiled for choice of the many exotic cave names, I chose Kuredu, Orda and Azzura as these particular caves bore the closest visual similarities to my creations.
