"Pure Joy!" is a 36" x 36" mixed media masterpiece by Lorraine Lawson, celebrated for her abstract expressionist vigor. This piece is a harmonious confluence of textured layers and ephemeral script, set against an olive green tableau that suggests a landscape of emotion and thought. Splashes of black and cream rise like spirited whispers, while fragments of handwritten notes introduce a personal, almost secretive dimension to the work. The composition, rich in depth and movement, invites contemplation and exudes a sense of unrestrained exuberance. Perfect for the discerning collector, this painting adds a sophisticated yet spirited narrative to any space, embodying the very essence of its title, "Pure Joy!" Ideal for display in both contemporary and traditional settings, it promises to be a conversation piece that complements a curated collection of fine art.
 
Lorraine Lawson's artistry lies at the intersection of the representational and the abstract, influenced by the transformative power of nature, culture, and architecture. Her work is an artistic tribute to the beauty of imperfection and the passage of time, drawing on the Japanese concept of Wabisabi to honor the beauty in the worn and broken. Lawson's abstract, textural paintings are rich with layers that evoke memories and a sense of place, achieved through innovative techniques with paint and encaustic mediums. Her practice involves a continual evolution of visual symbols and an exploration of techniques, all aimed at capturing the lyrical expressions of life's experiences. Her dedication to her craft is fueled by years of keen observation and a passion for expressing the profound narrative of life through her unique visual language.
