Dorothy Harris Moy, Gesher Human Services – Creative Expressions Program
Psychedelic Abstract 01
$75.00
This abstract painting is a vibrant explosion of color. It features a chaotic blend of various hues, including reds, oranges, yellows, blues, greens, and purples. The paint is applied in thick, expressive strokes, creating a sense of energy and movement. The overall effect is one of a swirling, chaotic mass of color, with no discernible shapes or objects. The mood of the painting is both exhilarating and overwhelming.
Artist Bio
My name is Dorothy, and I’ve enjoyed creating art since high school. Art is therapeutic for me, helping me through sickness, pain, or grief. I love nature and the outdoors, and in this exhibition, I’m showcasing plein air paintings inspired by outdoor scenery. Painting in nature is both relaxing and fulfilling. I also create psychedelic abstract paintings using a paint-pouring technique, combining colors on canvas or paper. I press two pours together, forming swirling clouds of color, and then use an etching tool to scratch patterns into the paint, adding intricate details.
