Ocean Alchemy 3 by Olivia Alexander – 37x29cm mixed media on 300gsm paper. Mounted on canvas, set in natural wood floating frame.
In the mid 1890’s my Great Grandfather, Alexander Morrison left the shores of bonny Aberdeen in Scotland. A pioneer, he sailed across treacherous oceans to Australia in search of gold and a new beginning.
His heart was full of hope, trepidation and I would imagine, a certain amount of fear!
Stories of my grandfather inspired my new series of Ocean Alchemy paintings.
Incorporating the colours and rhythms of the ocean and gold leaf which represents the light upon the water I have developed my own multi layered mixed media technique. It has a double chromatic effect which changes with the direction of light.
Fibres and charcoal pigments create an intriguing texture in the first layers.
Sealed and varnished.
