Whimsy in Bloom

By Linda

Original Digital Design • Laser-Cut Relief • Hand-Painted Mixed Media
13” × 13” • Custom Framed

This original work brings together digital design, contemporary technology, and traditional art-making. The ornamental forms begin as my own designs, created digitally on the computer and then precisely cut with a laser. I incorporate them into a hand-painted mixed-media surface filled with expressive layers of blush pink, powder blue, turquoise, cream, lavender, and soft neutral tones.

The contrast between the flowing painted surface and the precisely designed dimensional forms explores the relationship between playfulness and sophistication, spontaneity and structure, technology and craftsmanship.
