BURRO’S TAIL

Artwork Description: Mixed media on wood panel, resin finish

“Burro’s Tail” is a mixed media painting on a 48″x36″ wood panel that beautifully showcases the splendor of the Sedum Morganianum plant, commonly known as the Burro’s Tail. The painting captures the cascading tendrils of the plant, which gracefully spill down the canvas, creating an organic and dynamic composition. The artist portrays the intricate details of the plant, from the succulent leaves with their distinct plumpness to the subtle variations in colour and texture.
This artwork is created using a combination of mixed media techniques, resulting in a visually striking and textured composition. The artist incorporates collage, acrylic painting on canvas, and the gentle blending of oil pastels to bring the Burro’s Tail to life, infusing it with vibrant and nuanced colors.
To enhance the painting’s luminosity and ensure its durability, a resin finish is thoughtfully applied. This glossy layer not only provides protection but also adds a captivating sheen, intensifying the colours and imbuing the piece with an enchanting radiance. Moreover, the resin finish invites viewers to engage with the painting on a sensory level, as its smooth surface entices touch and creates a visually captivating interplay of light and shadow.
