Description
An impasto painting of two bonsai trees against the red, setting sun in Kyoto, Japan; a place where I attended High School as an exchange student, and one that will forever hold a special place in my heart.
This is the location where I learned the art of simplicity and the value of encouraging every brushstroke to be purposeful.
Impasto is the technique of using exceptionally thick paint. It can add a three-dimensional or even sculptural quality to a painting.
With my "go big or go home" personality, I enjoy using paint so thick that it rises off the canvas with textures so tempting people just have to touch it.
Like life itself, when we take the time to engage more of our senses, a deeper beauty is revealed, a worthy goal in art and in life.
