Book of Peace

$500.00

12" x 12" x 1-1/2”

Original mixed media painting acrylic, ink, papers, and cloth on canvas.

Book of Peace - My intention for this painting was to get back to creating books on canvas. I had been working on paper and longed for a return to canvas and constructing books with cloth. So I decided to play with an unfinished painting that didn’t have much more than a textured border with some text and a bit of color in the center.

I delighted in adding the tiny book you see, out of raw canvas, and sewing it onto the original canvas. I chose to use the Sanskrit words, Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti, which is a peace mantra. With the addition of more text, paper, texture, and color I completed my return to the element of the book in my paintings.

The sides of this gallery wrapped canvas are painted to match the painting. It is signed and dated on the side of the canvas.
