Serenity is the theme of this abstract painting, which comes from the purposely chosen pink spectrum, a colour that calms and balms. It helps with ones' tranquility and psychologically soothes the mind, neutralising agitation. This is why it is titled 'Pink for a Dream', because it would be an appropriate colour for one even if not entirely putting one to sleep, it would help for a much more pleasant mood and restful disposition. Not being plain pink can contribute to absorbing thoughts away as well, while contemplating the intricate lines and spaces, helping a bit to being lured from some reality, something we often need. The piece is one of my ongoing series done through psychic automation, driven by spontaneity, inspired by emotion and also colour of choice to convey the theme. Starting with a notion, followed by the colour and evolving through automation. The acrylic based mixed media painting was done on a gallery wrapped canvas, with all four sides painted neatly in a light greyish khaki colour. The signature is placed on the back of the painting with the rest of the markings as to not interfere with the viewing. It is intended to be unframed and looks complete that way, but may be framed if desired.
Jason Zahra's Perspective
Living with this artwork is like
The purpose of having this kind of painting is to have some mental escape to imagination or regeneration of mindfulness. Just like with a sweet dream that soothes and refreshes body and mind, it may help to let go of one's surroundings and whisk into slight meditation. It is meant for a dream and a calm atmosphere, if receptive enough.
