"Painting the coast evokes so many feelings within. The process can take me straight back to a time, place, moment, event - a memory that lies dormant within until something in the painting triggers that memory to resurface.
So to 'Evoke. This one flooded the memory bank, evoking so many different emotions: joy at the memories of warm Summers spent in fresh teal waters, sadness at the loss of a loved one who used to treasure the coast like I do; acknowledgement of strength and resilience to persistent health challenges; and now, contentment and hope for the season I'm currently in.
A season where I seek quiet and comfort and can find it here...on an empty, overcast beach, rugged with rocky headlands, where sandy inlets bring refuge and solace from the turbulence of life. Where the threat of rain only lifts my mood not dampens it; a washing away of old hurts and traumas and in it's place, renewal.
Whatever this artwork evokes for you, I hope your response to it's invitation is to pause, reflect, exhale...and find peace and comfort too".
Created with palette knives on artist quality stretched canvas, this emotive artwork is framed in oak, satin varnished, and comes with a COA with the above artist statement.
NB: While every effort is made to capture the true colours and details of my artwork, every screen is different and art viewed online does not do my work justice. Slight differences may be evident between a screen image and the true tone and textures of my work, which can be more vivid and beautiful in reality. Scale may also be slightly off due to the insitu art app used, so please ensure you measure your space.
Artist Bio: Sharon Rynehart is an impressionist palette knife artist recognised for her flowing, expressive style of the sea, land and sky. A former Interior Designer and Colour Consultant, Sharon had health issues that saw her turn to painting for therapy and healing.
Transforming her creative practice into what she calls ‘heartwork’; emotive, hope-fuelled pieces inspired by faith, nature, and the beauty of our Australian coastlines and landscapes. She uses her background in colour theory to create beautiful colour harmonies, painting original artworks that allow you to reflect on your own story; to finish the train of thought, to remember a time or place, and to explore and feel the emotions they instil. Artworks that are relatable, that invite you to reflect, force an exhale, evoke a sense of calm…and bring you hope.
Now widely collected both in Australia and Internationally, she’s enjoyed recent success as a Finalist in Art to Art’s acclaimed “Unearthed” Art Prize.
