About the Item

Harvest Moon, Original Contemporary Abstract Mixed Media Painting on Canvas 48x60x1.5 (HxWxD), Mixed Media A series of loose rectangles overlap one another in this large format mixed media painting by artist Sarah Finucane. The paint sits thick on the canvas, allowing areas to be scratched through, revealing the layers of color underneath. Primarily an abstract work, the artist does include a clear symbol of nature that seems to be growing out of the center of the composition. There is a grunge and toughness that comes from the application of the paint, and the gritty scratches and drips that are consistent throughout the work, but the soft color pallete keeps the painting reserved and non-intimidating. In-situ images are mockups only; work comes unframed. Artist Commentary: After you harvest fennel flowers, they wilt immediately. I'm using the fennel flower as a symbolic reminder to seize the day, or your favorite season (mine is fall). In an expression of gratitude, the typography spells out "I O U.". A yummy orange-raspberry shade is welcoming and warm. The light purplish-gray color is whimsical and dreamy. It has a soft, relaxing spiritual sensibility, casting both gray and lavender depending on the lighting. Its perfect for any space that could use a touch of ethereal sophistication. This time of year, the angle of light changes, hence the sky blue color. Savannah green and classic ochre illuminate the right edge. With geometric laser print transfers of diamonds and morse code, the artwork is given a graphic quality that is contrasted with distressed paint and gestural sgraffito, in which the top layers of acrylic paint are scratched away to reveal the layers of color beneath. About The Artist: As a rebellious high schooler with a reputation for cutting classes, I spent my days in the dark room or at the local arts guild, indulging in the art classes I was actually interested in rather than suffering through algebra. Despite my love for skipping school, I still managed to earn a spot on the honor roll my senior year. After graduating from Savannah College of Art & Design, I headed west to the sunny (and slightly sketchy) beaches of Venice, California, where I spent the next two decades working as a Creative Director and Product Design Strategist by day and perfecting my painting skills by night. Now, I've come full circle and returned to my roots in the lush and snowy landscapes of the east coast, setting up a private art and design studio in a converted post and beam barn that was once a General Store in the 1740s. With the help of my three studio assistants, my rescue terrier Potter, and my cats Cleo and Sparky, I'm able to bring my creative vision to life in this unique and inspiring space. STATEMENT As an artist and designer, I've always marched to the beat of my own drum and relish the challenge of turning nothing into something. But after reaching the peak of my career in product design, I found myself burnt out and craving something more. So, I took a break from the corporate world and returned to my artistic roots through painting. I currently work with two distinct approaches: one that is frenetic, spontaneous, and painterly, and another that is methodically designed and planned. The first approach is fueled by feelings and memories that arise from the music on my playlist, and involves bold color combinations, clean lines, and primitive marks made with unconventional tools like lemons and mops. The second approach is inspired by color and involves exploring textures, patterns, and deeply layered compositions through the use of various mediums and tools. In my studio, I use a wide range of mediums and tools, including acrylic, oil sticks, spray paint, pastels, graphite, ink, and everything from wallpaper brushes to toilet brushes and fruit. I also incorporate printmaking and collaging techniques, using both painted and found objects like vintage wallpaper, wrapping paper, magazines, piano paper, and sewing patterns. Overall, my work is characterized by its wit, edginess, irreverence, rebellion, honesty, and a playful, eclectic, and whimsical range of moods.
