Artist: Brittany Soucy
Title: Signs of Spring
Material: oil on ABS board
Size: 4x8 inches
About the artwork: I left the brush strokes very loose and untouched so that the energy comes through on this piece. This is a painting of my favorite Spring-blossoming tree in my yard--my Kwanzan Cherry. The full flowers cover the tree so beautifully after a long winter. Then as the green is showing up all around the yard, the blooms begin to fade and the petals start falling off the tree like confetti, leaving me with a carpet of pink petals to picnic upon. So much joy!
About the artist: Brittany Soucy is an oil painter living on the seacoast of New Hampshire. She is best known for her loose, energetic landscape and abstract paintings. She is inspired by light and nature. She says, “I believe that setting aside time for making and appreciating art is an act of self care. I now understand that the process of art making is an important balm that propels us toward healing. When I was younger I worried that being creative and artistic was a useless talent to have, but now I consider it both a pleasure and a sacred responsibility.”
