About the Item

"Ebb and Flow" by Sarah Alexander, is a flowing abstract watercolor on canvas in cool calm blues and turquoises measuring 30 x 24 x 1.5 inches from Alexander's "Off the Studio Floor" series. Using a template from discarded studio scraps she overlapped a trunk-like shape repeatedly. You can almost feel the ebb and flow of this surreal micro-landscape. Painted on an ordinary canvas coated with watercolor ground, Alexander created a toothy textured surface to layer her watercolor washes onto. The sides of the canvas are gallery wrapped and painted. No framing required. Sarah Alexander is a contemporary mixed media artist with an emphasis on watercolor using unconventional surfaces and techniques. Her work is in private collections and has been shown extensively throughout New England, and abroad. Her work has been published by North Light Books. Alexander is represented by Fountain Street Gallery based in Boston, MA.
