The basework of this image is a rubber tile/block print. The colour has been digitally altered and enhanced for a more dramatic effect. The colours in this particular work are about finding brightness, movement and joy in life, no matter how dark the surroundings. The darker the surroundings, the brighter any spark of colour or light will be.

I love your description that very much appeals to me. This is a great depiction of the theme. Indeed the brightness and joy burst out of this image. Love the abundant shapes that give me a feeling of fertility. The red vase is so beautiful. This art is very encouraging, inspiring and uplifting..
Elaine van Dyk replied
I believe the theme is something many of us can relate to. I’m pleased you appreciate it, and with passion will continue to produce some of your own work too as soon as you have the time and inclination.

This has a feel of animation, a sense of living, as in a Disney cartoon. The rich colors, particularly the red vase and dark blue strokes in the flowers make it sing and give a feel of frivolity !!!
Elaine van Dyk replied
Yay, I’m pleased you get that sense of life and song, hugo. Thanks for your encouraging comment.
