Deer At Water's Edge 30" x 22"
Original Painting by Kelly B Desrosiers, 30”x22”x1.25”, framed and ready to hang.
The title of this piece, Deer At Water’s Edge, describes a moment as a deer glides silently and ethereally into view where a mountain has descended to a pristine northern river. The mountain vibrates with the energy of its geological upthrust, and all the life that dwells upon it. The sky swirls and the river surges past, representing time passing. This painting seems to me to have something eternal and powerful about it.
This original painting was achieved with a technique I developed to be able to layer pattern over pattern, transparently, which is meant to represent the complexity of relationships in the natural world, be they micro, macro, physical, ecological, energetic, imaginary, spiritual, etc. My science background has led me to attempt to somehow express this complexity in a technique involving layers (see detail photos) of patterns, colors, marks, textures, lines, and dots.
This original painting is a mixed media artwork using professional Daniel Smith permanent watercolor, gouache, and ink on 300 lb. rough Saunders-Waterford watercolor paper, full sheet 30”x22”. The painting has been archivally mounted onto a sealed, gessoed cradled birch panel, then sealed with seven coats of Golden spray varnish. The first six coats are gloss varnish, followed by one or two coats of matte varnish to preserve the original surface appearance of the watercolor paper (which makes the varnish virtually invisible) but the painting is protected from dust and UV light as a result. This painting has been framed in a contemporary white ⅜” wide, 1.5”deep, painted wood frame of my own design and construction, with sturdy D-ring hardware and woven wire attached. I handcraft each and every step of my process in my own modest home studio in Unity, Maine. Mine is a one-woman operation, start to finish!
I have used “staging software” to show the scale and appearance of this painting were it to be hung in different rooms. This allows me to show you how this unique painting would look hung above a bed, couch, or on a wall. It is to help you visualize the scale of the work in your own home or office.
