Stillness Painting

The process of this extra large artwork began with a soft horizon which was then broken with highly expressive and gestural strokes. However, this made the work almost aggressive. After leaving the work alone for a while, the artist came back to it, seeing that the work, although stunning, had an energy of striving in it and this is the opposite of what Julia is hoping to achieve. Art carries energy and there are works which are undoubtedly clever or stylish but which don't import any stillness. Julia therefore worked out the heavy strokes into an impressionistic water or sky scene. The various clouds of colour were the striking elements, now blended carefully to be subtle and understated. The painting looks very different in different lights - these pictures were taken in full day light. At night, it takes on a drawn together pale blue. The work aims at simplicity in a spiritual and emotional sense; the artist wants it to represent freedom from the need to impress.
