Item Description
"Harborview 2023" by Maura O'Connor
Medium: Fluid Acrylic and Ink
Size: 19" x 8"
Artist Statement:
This year I continue to experiment with replicating my watercolor and ink style on a larger scale. My inspiration for the Cod this year was a classic, iconic view of Marblehead, using the familiar scene as a way to experiment with technique. It was a joy Interpreting the bold colors of the coastal houses stacked endlessly atop one another like the rainbow scales of a fish interlocking. This painting technique experiments with adding blocks of color first and then drawing atop the color with ink. The most interesting parts to me are where the ink and color don't quite match up, revealing this process to the viewer.
