Unique relief artwork, acrylic paint, paper mache, white beachcombed coral and plaster cast shells This one of a kind artwork can not be reproduced...as the hand of the artist is irreplacable as the sole creator, and her soul leads the process, accident, and physical actuality. It's a throwback and link to a human history of 'mark making' from cave painting, through all the permutations of art history to today. The soul bared, the manipulation of matter by hand, the accident embraced and creation under thumb, the human fallibility, the brushstroke...for the viewer or archaeologist. A push back against a surreal connectedness without any true human to earth reality. #reliefartist #fineartofinstagram #handcraftedfineart #originalart #rageagainsthemachine #femaleart #islandlifeisthebestlife #withahumanhandandheart #oldschoolpainter #notdigitalart #beachcomber #beachcombeverday #asaltylifeforme #beekeepersdoitbetter #savethebees #seashelljewellery #aikillshumanity #nftisnotart

It's always exciting to put the finishing touches on a new textile piece, but there are several things to do! First, I have to "square" the wall-hanging... straightening & cutting the edges. .🌸 Next, I will sign my name and the date freehand in thread. Then a facing is stitched around the edges and turn it to the back. 🌸 The art quilt wall-hanging is completed with a hanging sleeve for displaying. #artinprogress #artprocess #jonibeach #spainart #visionsofspain #contemporarytextileart Also #shopindie #artisansatwork #handcraftedfineart #artquilting #textileart #artoninstagram #interiordesignart #artbuyers #originalart #collageartworks
Here are the thread "paints" & color pallette for this piece ("Field of Flowers at Toledo")... 🎨 In completing the design last night, I used these shimmery, rayon colors to add to the leaves,... the sky...., the purple blossoms...and the old buildings on the horizon. Some matte colors were also used as needed! 🏚️ A collection of wonderfully colored threads is like looking into a giant box of crayons when you're a kid! 🖍️🖍️🖍️🖍️🖍️ *What are your favorite things that just make you want to create something?? 🤔 #artistsjourney #jonibeach #threadpainting #colorpalletes #colorinspirations #artquilting #artisanmade #handcraftedfineart #contemporarytextiles #artoninstagram #textileart #fiberarts
