rebirth Painting

I am trying to create artwork that seduces the spectator to engage it intellectually and emotionally and finish its story, like the beginning of a short story or the punch line of an unsettling joke.” I consciously work with technique and composition, but my unconscious adds an element of inner yearning for tranquility, strength and well-being depending on my mood. The figures depict grounded women with animals head earthy feet and hands. In a way, the whole painting is a self-portrait from the inside, out. For the sake of important elements in a work, I often exaggerate or distort shapes and lines to enhance the overall flow and composition. I apply the paint, but it is a struggle to not get in the way of the process as it unfolds. It works best if the vision guides me, not I guide it. I notice that my visits to Malaysia are influencing my palette. Her desired to printmaking appeared after she decided to learn Hand drawn Batik. She mixed Iranian painting with nature by shiny and bright color in her last series.
