Déjà

Size: 18" x 24" x 1.5"
Medium: Acrylic
Surface: Canvas
Style: Abstract / Realism
Artist: Thaneeya McArdle


This highly textured painting is part of my new Synchronal Variety series. These paintings combine decorative abstraction and meticulous photorealism in a contemporary wabi-sabi aesthetic. Wabi-sabi refers to the traditional Japanese aesthetic of appreciating things that are impermanent, imperfect, and incomplete. This ideal manifests itself in the textural background of the piece, which is adorned with ornamental floral and abstract details. Turquoise metallic paint outlines the middle yellow section. A fish floats calmly on the surface, observing life. The 1.5" thick edges of this painting are painted black, making this painting ready to hang directly onto the wall without a frame.



This painting is SOLD.

Strata

Size: 15" x 30" x 1.5"
Medium: Acrylic
Surface: Canvas
Style: Abstract
Artist: Thaneeya McArdle
This painting is formed from a rich palette of deep colors over a variety of interesting textures. The painting is divided into seven layers, which symbolize the layers of existence from the heavenly/astral realm to the material realm. The egg-like shape in the last section symbolizes creation, the core of the earth, and a sense of meditative centeredness. The unique blend of colors, shapes, and textures creates a sense of energy and exuberance on the surface that immediately transforms the atmosphere of any room into one of exotic festivity. This painting may be hung with any side facing up! The 1.5" thick edges of this painting are painted black, making this painting ready to hang directly onto the wall without a frame.
