Bloom, Abstract Painting

2022

Artist Comments
"This piece is a celebration of spring with its bursts of color, warmth, and light, after the long cold winter," says artist Pat Forbes. A colorful splash of vibrant colors in orange, pink, blue, and teal come together melting a cold and dark center. Large white buds shine under a brilliant light with stems growing taller and seeds growing faster.

About the Artist
Pat Forbes is an abstract painter whose aesthetic is heavily influenced by her 20 years as a collector and dealer of Middle Eastern textiles. Pat, who lives on the west coast of Florida, uses a neutral palette to present her interpretation of the world around her– from marshes and mountains to stones and spiderwebs. She is drawn to pattern and design, both of which influence the use of balanced repetition in her work. Pat’s muted colors invite pensive meditation, while her deliberate use of line guides the eye through satisfyingly symmetrical compositions.
