About the Item

'Out of the Blue' Acrylic and plaster paste on canvas 71x91 cm First the canvas is primed with gesso, and several layers of the base coat are applied. When I am satisfied that there is enough depth to the colour, I start to sculpt the actual roses onto the painted canvas using a flexible plaster paste. The sculpted roses are then primed individually with gesso and painted with high-quality, heavy-body acrylic paint. The resulting relief has a highly 3-dimensional feel. These pink roses are a modern bush rose that I inherited in my current garden (possibly 'Queen Elizabeth'). I was lying in the garden on one perfect summer day, looking up at them against an extraordinarily blue sky, and they appeared to somewhat float against this background. And that it how the idea for this painting came to me. This painting is on canvas and does not necessarily require framing. The painting has several coats of a mat varnish for UV and dirt protection. It is signed and dated on the back.

Jill Matthews, "Blue Bouquet", Light and Airy Floral Still Life Painting
By Jill Matthews
Located in Saratoga Springs, NY
This light, fresh and airy piece, "Blue Bouquet" is a 24x24 oil painting on canvas by artist Jill Matthews. Depicted is a simple contemporary blue floral bouquet in a clear glass vase on a simple white background. About the artist: “I have been creating art on some level for as long as I can remember. Life has led me in various directions but one thing that has always remained a constant is my love for art and involving myself in the creative process. Jill was born and raised in the inspiring state of Vermont. She studied Fine Art at The University of Vermont and upon graduating with a B.S. in Art Education, she moved to San Diego California where she continued studying painting at The University of California San Diego. After a brief career as a fine art educator, she realized her true passion was being more hands on in creating and has been painting professionally ever since. Jill and her family have recently settled back on the east coast from the San Francisco area. She feels so fortunate to be living and working in the inspiring state of Maine. As with anything, art is a process and my recent work is representative of how it has evolved. One of the hardest things as an artist is to find a voice in your work. I spent a long time focusing on replicating things that I saw rather truly seeing them through an artistic eye. My work now is based on an initial idea or vision, I still will use some references in the process, but my most successful moments in painting happen when I lose that security and the work is coming from within. Adding, editing, allowing color interaction...

Free (Blue Ribbon), Original Painting
By Ruth-Anne Siegel
Located in San Francisco, CA

Artist Comments
Abstracted bouquet of mixed flowers. Orange, pink and yellow petals jump off of a rich blue backdrop. Ruth-Anne built up the composition with many layers of thin and thick paint, scraped away sections and added small details throughout. Her gestural style of painting gives the piece energy and whimsy.
