Heather Hartman
DORMANT- Blue, Orange, Black and White Painting of Kudzu Vine, Atmospheric

2021

About the Item

DORMANT by Heather Hartman, made for her show "Kudzu Season," is one of a series of four paintings representing the four seasons relative to the Kudzu growth cycle. This painting, titled "Dormant," is the Winter-inspired piece in the series. After the first frost of winter, all of the leaves of the kudzu plant fall off of the vine, leaving it limp and bare. Here, we see the stark outline of a kudzu vine in the dead of winter. The blue to orange-red atmospheric gradient tells us that it is dusk, and the moon shining in the background is enough to send shivers down your spine. As the title suggests, the Kudzu plant remains dormant in Winter, but will begin to expand and flower come Spring.

  • CHROMASEEDS - Framed Mixed Media Painting of 3 Gaillardia w/ Blooms Falling
    By Heather Hartman
    Located in Signal Mountain, TN
    CHROMASEEDS is a multilayered composition created with paper and tyvek cut-outs painted with oil, acrylic, and gouache, sealed with polyester mesh layers. The plants represented in the piece are Gaillardia flowers, commonly known as blanket flowers, native to North America and often bred for their decorative, ornamental shape. In her creative process, Hartman anthropomorphizes the flowers, paying attention to their dance-like growth movement. Here, their shadows dance in the prismatic light of the rainbow, while the wind catches their seeds, cultivating the garden. The vibrant, rainbow light was achieved by painting a prismatic shape on tyvec and black paper, creating a reverse silhouette...
