About the Item
Artist Comments
Artist Leslie Ann Butler creates a striking sense of balance and contrast in this piece, combining geometric shapes with fluid paint splatters. The interplay between rigid squares and chaotic splashes generates tension, inviting the viewer to explore the relationship between control and freedom, order and chaos. Silver and gold leaf set against deep black further heightens the visual impact.
About the Artist
Abstract painter Leslie Ann Butler has been passionate about making art since she was a child. “In grade school I did a portrait of Robert Frost and sent it to him, and received a nice letter of thanks,†Leslie Ann recalls. Though she still enjoys creating figurative work, Leslie Ann is also intrigued by abstraction. She describes creating abstract work as entering an altered state of consciousness. Often the compositions will come to her during meditation, and she does her best to reproduce the vision in the studio. Leslie Ann works from the top floor of her Portland home, where she gets lots of natural light and a view of the city.
