36" x 24" multimedia painting composed of acrylic and oil paint with tea
Dolorous was inspired by a friend with an affinity for ravens and weeping willows. This piece was originally planned as a commission and I had a clear vision of what I wanted to create from her description. I watered down the acrylic paint and used desiccant beads in order to bring texture and gather a concentration of colors behind the willow tree. This is one of the few paintings that I used a paint brush to detail in the background edge.
