Gentle Embrace

Alcohol Ink on synthetic paper
Size 300mm x 210mm

The painting’s swirling blues, greens, sandy beiges, and purples evoke a serene seaside mood without depicting any specific shore. 
Taking meanings from colour psychology, the 'cool' colours used blue, purple, and green are calming, with blue also linked with peace and hope, and green with nature and freshness. 
The abstract title is a metaphor and mood to spark imagination. Based on these ideas, the aim of the image is to invoke a meditative, lyrical, and fluid feeling.
The painting is part of a Formby-based mindfulness art series.

This painting can be displayed in portrait or landscape.

Do note that the artwork is supplied unframed and unmounted. 
When framing, it is recommended to use a mount (mat) to create a slight separation between the artwork and the glass. 
This helps preserve the surface and prevents any potential smudging or sticking over time.

Due to the fluid nature of alcohol ink and the use of metallic pigments, the colours may appear different depending on lighting conditions. 
The metallic accents are especially reflective and will be most visible under direct light or natural daylight.
