Breathe Out

2023

This painting was inspired by the many themes within my art. Duality is seen in the changing textures and colors, creating a strong sense of depth, concave to convex as well as dark to light. Emergence, another theme, occurs with each layer of paint. New forms start to emerge as if by magic, creating a sense of excitement and mystery. In this painting I hope to evoke the feeling of beauty as well as the challenges of the sea.

Emergence, another theme, occurs with each layer of paint. New forms start to emerge as if by magic, creating a sense of excitement and mystery. In this painting, I hope to evoke the colorful growth and blossoming of spring.

Earthly tones of color, some vibrant as a stormy sky, some muted and soft. At first, that is all you see. Upon closer scrutiny you find images almost completely buried, seemingly forgotten writings, drawings, tiny prints, sheet music, are all mingle along with torn book pages immigration papers, tea stained paper, a print of a feather, calligraphy. All fragments of lives and their untold stories. Sylvia Torres, was born in California, one will find the ocean, sky and mountains reflected in her work.
