Give and Take
"Give and Take embodies the essence of balance through its exploration of contrasting elements that coexist harmoniously, reminiscent of the yin and yang. There is a give and take. The bold colors and dominating trees in the foreground are balanced by the intricate shoreline details and the serene background horizon line trees, creating a captivating composition. This piece highlights the importance of give and take in maintaining equilibrium and invites viewers to contemplate the interconnectedness of opposing forces in our lives." - Sheila Kernan
Kernan's boldly coloured and meticulously layered mixed media compositions often combine applications of flat acrylic surfaces and airbrushed accents with hand-cut stencil elements and richly textured oil impasto. Canvases are finished with white-painted sides and are ready to hang framed or unframed.
