Olive, 9x12 Acrylic Painting, 16x20 matted, Abstract Faces, Abstract Woman
“Olive” is one in a series called "Abstract Ladies with Stories". This 9x12, original painting, on 115# acrylic paper, comes packaged for protection in a 16x20, white, single mat, with backing and sleeve. My paints and embellishments are of the highest archival quality to ensure the longevity of this work of art for years to come.
This abstract series involves a collage process, borrowing pieces, and parts of a variety of painted faces and reassembling them to bring out these ladies and their vibrant stories.
The palette includes a selection of lavender, yellow, orange, magenta, and a dark olive green background with a whimsical touch of random embellishments and markings in paint pen and pastels.

Each creation that I present to the world is a labor of love with a unique story that evolved with many studio hours and underlayers of paint. Building it, shaping it, and embellishing it with a variety of mediums.
It would truly be an honor to have this original creation become a part of your life.
Photos are presented to provide a sense of color, details, and scale. Some images may not perfectly represent the painting due to lighting and shadows. The information is for general informational purposes only.
The ladies in this series each evolved with their own story. Below Olive shares her world.
“Olive Belle sits demurely by her garden window, pouring tea into the time-worn porcelain cup. Lost in her distant thoughts and dreams. What could have been, what was not said, and the aloneness that has consumed her lifelong narrative.
‘Nobody asked your opinion’ Olive retorts to the empty room. Adrift in her dreams of the choices she once made and the ones she left to hang in the shadows like a stifled whisper.
If only she could turn back the hands of time knowing now who she has become. You can’t spend your whole life searching for perfection and expect it to have just been a dress rehearsal. Looking back through all the chapters that lie behind her now, it could have been so easy to take more, than to have taken nothing. “
