About the Item

Cedar Breaks Saturation 11 x 11 inches (Framed size: 18 x 17.75 inches) watercolor on paper (painted using lightfast pigments, acid-free paper and archival framing materials) $1,850 Landscape: Cedar Breaks National Monument, Utah. Colorful eroded sandstone cliffs. - Rebecca Livermore holds a Master of Fine Arts from the Rhode Island School of Design and a bachelor’s from the University of California, Berkeley. Of her orderly watercolor paintings she says: “Having spent 20 years as a graphic designer informs the way I design my compositions – altering reality as I please – to create a mood and to focus on the most personally intriguing aspect of my subject. Sometimes I simplify my designs to highlight the organic, flowing shapes in a landscape or to call attention to a certain aspect of my subject. At other times, I add complexity with the use of stylized, repeating lines and forms (frequently in contrasting colors) to define edges and to contrast with and/or emphasize the essential characteristics of my subjects. Drawing and painting these invented lines and forms is my way of adding myself to my subject and contributes to the joy and satisfaction I feel while I’m painting. On the watercolor mediums used: "Through careful research, I have selected a palette of lightfast pigments which will not fade over time. I purposely use these pigments, sometimes in unexpected places, sometimes in unexpected ways, to exaggerate color relationships in my subjects. All of my paintings employ lightfast pigments, acid-free paper and archival framing materials."
