About the Item
Artist Comments
In her series titled Flirt, artist Teresa Dirks draws inspiration from the Mark Rothko quote, "A painting is not a picture of an experience, but is the experience." Teresa says, "This is what I want for the viewer, for their experience to be something ephemeral." She created textures with a palette of black, gold, white, and a hint of sky. Teresa describes her style as a type of asemic graffiti, in which it's meant to have no specific meaning. "The end result acquiesces a tiny bit of magic for you."
About the Artist
Teresa Dirk’s artistic voice is profoundly influenced by her upbringing in the rustic American south. Seamstresses, quilters, gardeners, and farmers, served as creative role models throughout her childhood that cultivated her love of nature, growth, and creativity. She works in mixed media to create abstracts that channel the energy of her past. Her paintings are deeply personal and carry precise meanings and particular stories to them. The whimsical lines and playful color choices lend themselves to a childlike quality that charms with nostalgia. Though each of her paintings reflect her personal surroundings and history, she delves into complex conceptual topics, such as urban decay and nature’s fundamental connections. She has a passion for the process, and views it as propagating the brilliant and expressive energy she has witnessed throughout her life.

The inspiration for each and every painting is brought about through music ; every piece has a ;Voice; listed on the back which indicates the music involved in the process. When you receive the painting, read that information, purchase or obtain the music from a library etc. , listen to the music ; see what it inspires in yourself.

The combination of these two worlds, serve as a matrix for what are essentially autobiographical paintings.
