About the Item

This acrylic on canvas piece by Laurie Barmore creates an introspective composition with a dark background featuring light orange and white lines cascading from three directions. The contrast between the dark and the cascading lines creates a sense of mystery and depth. The lines sprawl organically, reminiscent of roots in the natural world. From the artist: "It is these immaterial and internal ideas and feelings that I explore in my paintings. Creating is about paying attention to noticing the particular. I find my inspiration in poetry, nature, and the universal rhythms of life. I love that “things” can be metaphors for greater truths. I’m intrigued by the form, line, and patterns found in nature and of the story they tell. Not the obvious one that defines an object, but the narrative that portrays the intangible, the veiled, the mysterious. The way, for example, peeling bark tells me not merely about the tree or the nature of the bark but also about revelation, vulnerability, and transparency. As such, my paintings are about life; a blending of the external and internal, matter and spirit, observation and response."
