Crashing Boundaries by Francine Roche Kay
fluid acrylics
Statement: Between black and white is a host of colors. Life isn't just seen in black and white, but in a full spectrum of colors, denoting depth, meaning, and authenticity as seen by each person. These colors come crashing through the boundary between black and white.
This painting was created using a dual base in black and white. Where they meet, various fluid acrylics were added then blown out using a hair dryer to create flowers.
Bio: Though I have been drawing and painting all my life, I have only recently decided to pursue art after decades in the sciences. Art, to me, has always been therapeutic. Drawing and painting is what I turned to when I needed to relieve stress, or when I needed to work on a problem without actively thinking about it. I have always felt that my creative side worked hand-in-hand with my analytical side, and I discovered this to be especially true as an emerging fluid artist. As a fluid artist, I deal mostly with acrylics but I am starting to expand into alcohol inks and other fluid media. My background in chemistry has given me insight into fluid dynamics, along with other concepts such as the roles density and surface tension play in different fluids. Approaching and using technical scientific concepts through a different lens--as an artist, as opposed to a pharmaceutical scientist--has broadened my understanding of fluids in a completely novel way. Needless to say, this has been an eye opening journey and I look forward to delving further into this exciting art form.
