Pearlescent Acrylic on 11x14" canvas

Title : Bittersweet sparks invading a world of pearlescent creations. 2017 artwork signed by Samuel Boudreau. Glossy clear varnish coat. Professionnal quality cotton canvas stapled on thick wood frame. Steel hanging wire installed. Dimensions : 11" W x 14" H x 1" Thick Acrylic paint and cotton canvases are both traditionnal and accessible materials, a well fitted medium used to represent continuity of the framework civilizations live in : a synthetic chemical layered over a natural but transformed cotton and wood frame, the limited structure as is our planet. Through pieces of art such as this one, the artist expresses a social turmoil that plague our beautiful world. With the use of dark colored high velocity drips and subsequent propagation development with his breath over pearlscent and light primary colours, the artists attemps to mimic an impression of the violence, or destructive energy that sprout throughout a dynamic but seemingly peaceful and beautiful landscape. A reminder that there would not be social violence if there was social equality but also that there would be no creation by creative thinking or sense of purpose if there was no problem to be solved that needed any creativity. What is a problem if not simply an imbalance of the nature of things?
