Piece description from the artist
"Inside Garden" is a painting I created while exploring a new theme of introspection. The title came after the painting was completed and it felt like the way I view flower gardens inside of my head. The way the colors compliment and overlap with each other and just the overall composition. There were many layers within this painting but the top layer was created only with a squeegee type of tool that I used to squish the paint around.
Samantha Natarian, formerly Samantha Smith, is a Baltimore, MD based painter working in a form of contemporary abstract expressionism. Samantha received her BFA in Painting from Maryland Institute College of Art. While working primarily with paint & wet media, Samantha also incorporates other materials like pastel & crayons into her work to create texture. Her current source of inspiration stems from color, light & opacity, as well as a theme of self-discovery and reflection. Samantha aims to create a sense of depth in her two-dimensional paintings through the use of repetition, transparency and layering of mark-making. Her current body of work is based on experimentation and spontaneity where each mark she applies to the painting informs the next without prior intention.
