This painting was designed with the focal point being the lush pearl waves that punctuate the canvas. They were made by mixing pearl acrylic paint, gel gloss to add further sheen, and molding gel to add heft and three-dimensionality. This site-specific work was designed to be in the salon’s entrance where the viewer would be looking at it on edge with the sun coming through a window from the other side, making the light interplay across the work more dramatic and also unique for different times of the day, different weather conditions, and different seasons.
