Isn’t it weird and a little sad that as we grow older, things like fingerpainting become too messy to enjoy? I wanted to work backwards and get back to that childhood joy of sweeping paint across a piece of paper with my fingers, making messy dabs and smears. I decided to give it a try, to challenge myself a bit to get away from the brushstroke style I had been creating with for a while.

This is the first in a series of coastal explorations using fingerpainting technique.

This piece is finished with a gloss varnish to protect the painting and preserve its vibrancy. It is unframed, so you can choose what kind of matte and frame will work best for your space. The painting will arrive signed and dated, along with a certificate of authenticity.
