13.13 Meandering with Paint (Artwork)

Kathy Mantas - Nipissing University, Ontario, Canada

Abstract:

This abstract acrylic painting with resin, indirectly inspired by Kathy’s fascination with trees’ rhizomatic nature, was created using lighthearted and exploratory painting approaches (including a couple of pour painting techniques). This process necessitates experimentation and learning to appreciate the more unpredictable qualities of paint.
