About the Item
Artist Comments
"There is a moment, just before dusk, when a brilliant sunset above the darkening shoreline intermixes deliciously with the smoky glow of beachgoers' bonfires," says artist Dorothy Dunn. Dorothy layered vibrant orange and purple over soft smokey colors, intuitively recreating the scene in her mind. "I developed this painting using multiple raw and controlled pours of transparent and saturated acrylic paint to achieve layered depth and interest," Dorothy says of her process.
About the Artist
From childhood on, Dorothy was always eager about painting. Her grandfather encouraged her to graduate from a finger-painting enthusiast to a more mature and serious artist. Dorothy’s approach to her abstract artwork entails pouring paint in transparent layers to create sweeping colors across the canvas. Regardless, she manages to stay true to her childhood roots: “To this day, my clothes and hands always reflect the colors I am working with,” says Dorothy. “And I once again rediscovered the joys of finger-painting with my children!”
