Original Abstract Mixed Media Painting
by Elis Cooke

Series: Opposing Forces

"There are only two ways to live your life. One is as if nothing is a miracle, and the other is as if everything is a miracle."
-- Albert Einstein--

Opposing Forces is an ongoing series of work bridging the hard edges of reality with the curving lost edges of insight or intuitive truth. This series explores the the space in between extreme ends of a continuum, the contrast between dark and light, organic and structured, random and intended.

Media: Mixed watermedia collage.
Dominant colours: turquoise, copper, ivory, black

The best advice I've come across about creating is "To create what you want to look at..." I love to look at work that is ambiguous and suggestive; work that leaves room for the imagination of the viewer. Thus, I aspire to create a spirited body of work I define as "otherly". My art is ever evolving based upon recent experiments, research, discoveries and inspirations.
Thank you for taking the time to look!
