Piece description from the artist
'the rebirth in spring' acrylic painting by contemporary artist Elisa Niva, Acrylic on raw canvas 30 inches x 40 inches.
This large fluid abstract painting is a part of a series inspired by the Tantra paintings used for meditation practice. It is a stain painting so the paint is absorbed into the canvas creating a soft color gradient across the work. In addition, because it is a stain painting the back is almost as interesting as the front as you can see how the paint came through the canvas. The soft edges of the oval and the explosion of color starting to emerge from the top of the oval suggest a vibration of energy and light ready to emerge. Contact me with any questions or for additional videos or photos.
Dark and light, bright and muted colors interplay on the canvas. Elisa's intuitive works start off as stain painting, with the paint going into and even through the canvas. Her work is characterized by and interplay of bright colors balances with earthy nuetrals. Elisa is inspired by depicting unseen energies and emotions onto canvas, leaning into the beauty of happy accidents, organic flow, texture, detrition and layered sheer washes.
