Marney-Rose Edge
Artist Statement
Although I am well known for my colourful florals, I have recently expanded on a calling to create paintings of nests. I want to share this experience of changing to a different medium in black and white and intuitively painting realism. What happened when the materials I was using failed me and what I did to push through these challenges to succeed. Sometimes our journey is not easy without the strong belief it is what we are meant to do.
I paint in watercolour and oils, mostly florals. In the past year I have been revisiting a subject I love, which is the textural complexity of nests, with a new medium. They are exceptionally inspiring to paint and the subject flows from me onto the paper. I started painitng these on yupo paper and this has become my biggest challenge when upsizing the art. The challenge has been due to the presentation of the pieces as I did not want to frame them under glass. I discovered the paper pulling away from the panel it was mounted to creating bubbles. It showed up after time when I included them in an Art Fair. I have gone through the highs and lows with this work, pushing through to being able to replace the paper with working directly on a panel. Getting the right feel to the surface has been another challenge that I have succeeded in resolving. This was so important to the process. The medium is powdered charcoal and cold wax using it reductively.
