Yesterday, we were tickled pink because it was National Pink Day, so let's paint the town pink and spread some rosy cheer! 💗🌸 Isn't this piece by Elisabeth Condon the embodiment of pink or what? The foliage growing near her Tampa studio, traditional Chinese scroll painting, vintage fabrics, and wallpaper samples inspire Condon's paintings of tropical flora. She often isolates an object or pattern from these source materials and incorporates it as a central image or texture in her paintings. In "American Pastorale," a chrysanthemum anchors the painting. To create various layers in this work, Condon applied color with expressive brushwork and poured paint directly onto the canvas. The artist's palette of intense reds, oranges, and pinks, as well as cooler blues and greens, evokes Florida and Southern California's vibrant landscapes. Iridescent glitter adds texture and luminosity to the surface. What's your favorite shade of pink? 🧁👚 Image: Elisabeth Condon (American, b. 1959) American Pastorale, 2016 Acrylic, latex, glitter on linen Tampa Museum of Art, Museum Purchase with funds provided by Pat Michelsen and Eric Dean, 2017.001 . . . #TampaMuseumofArt #Painter #AcrylicPainting #PrettyInPink #PinkFlowers #Pink #PinkClothing #PinkDressDownDay #NationalPinkDay #PinkDay #Flower
