6 Sound of silence - acrylic on board

 


Sound of Silence   10x10cm acrylic on board    ©2022LisaLeQuelenec


'When you sit in silence long enough, you learn that silence has a motion.

It glides over you without any shape or form, exactly like water.

Its colour is silver. And silence has a sound you only hear after hours

of wading in it. The sound is soft, like flute notes rising up,

like the words of glass speaking.'

5 Sunrise - acrylic on board

'...my ability to convey my experience of the sunrise would depend, first,

on my having mastered an abstract language and, second,

on someone else (the viewer) having mastered it too.'

                                                                                                                                 Anne Truitt

4 Miles of open space - acrylic on board

 


Miles of Open Space   10x10cm acrylic on linen board   ©2022LisaLeQuelenec


A quote from one of my heroes whom we sadly lost this year.



'I might be the only person in miles of open space. It provides me with endlessly fascinating problems of conveying something which is about nothing more than emptiness.'

                                                                                                              Fred Cumming

3 You soar - acrylic on board

 

You Soar   10x10cm acrylic on board   ©2022LisaLeQuelenec


'gentle

serenade of flight,

snow arrow serene

ship in a transparent storm,

steady, you soar

while

the hoarse wind sweeps

the meadows of the sky.'


                          Pablo Neruda from Ode to the seagull



Available in my Folksy store.

1 Sea Mist - acrylic on linen board


Here is the finished painting....


Sea Mist acrylic 20x20cm   ©LisaLeQuelenec2022






I thought I would try a little video....I hope it worked...


From now until October 31st I will be posting a painting a day that I have made over Spring and Summer. Some have been inspired by a quote from poetry or literature, things that I felt important enough to jot down in notebooks and sketchbooks over the years. For others the quote found me after the painting had been made and just seemed to fit perfectly. Either way I hope you enjoy the series. 


The inspiration for this painting came from a poem by Clinton Scollard called The Mist and the Sea'


'The mist crept in from the sea

Out of the void and the vast;

And bore the silver rain

A shimmering guest in its train...'

                                                                                              Clinton Scollard


The rest of the poem is beautiful, I loved the imagery that it captured and the gentle rhythms of its flow.


This painting is available in my Folksy store.

End of summer studio sale on Folksy

 

Something new for me.... a little end of summer studio sale.


I had a few paintings returned from an exhibition and as the mountboard colour has been discontinued I can no longer replicate the framing. So I thought I should pop them in the shop unframed at a discounted rate.

Looking around the studio and through my plan chest I have found a few more paintings and prints which I have made available at discounted rates. Some are older pieces that just haven't found a home yet, some were artist proof prints where I tested colours before editioning.
