Description
From the Water collection. 30" x 30" x 1.5”. Acrylic and pumice on gallery-wrapped canvas by Wendy Pabich.
Be Like Water. Water, for its beauty, intrinsic properties, and mystical powers, remains for me a source of endless inspiration, stories, and life lessons. The paintings in this series are both an exploration of science through art, and expressions of reverence for our life-giving waters. By layering acrylic paint, pumice, plaster, and various mediums, I seek to emulate earth patterns, where form and function are intertwined. My mixtures on canvas create organic images that speak of weathering, dripping water, tangled reeds--providing a continuous reminder of the complexity and wonder of the natural world.

From the Water collection. 14" x 14" x 1.5”. Acrylic on raised wooden panel by Wendy Pabich. "As a child, I spent untold hours perched on the granite outcrops of New England's coastline, absorbing the nuances of the sea: the way the color of the water shifts towards gray with an oncoming storm; how flotsam gathers on eddy seams; the repetition in wave forms from the largest surges to the tiniest of ripples. I imagined myself a mermaid. The sea compelled me..." ~Wendy Pabich, Taking on Water

Heal I
24" x 24" x 1.5”. Acrylic, pastel, oil pastel, and charcoal on raised wood panel by Wendy Pabich. This image came to me during a Chakra Healing binaural meditation. Creating it involved building up texture, depth, and richness through layering and mark making. As my painting process has evolved, I've honed my techniques and become increasingly comfortable trusting the process. This almost always requires committing to the work, starting out with an exciting concept, image or intention, and diving in, only to at some point find myself in the nebulous "middle" where a successful outcome i...

Behold the Water II
From the Water collection. 30" x 30" x 1.5”. Acrylic and china marker on raised wood panel by Wendy Pabich. This piece was inspired by a particular organic color palette, created using the butt end of a foam roller to make alternatively translucent and more opaque marks and evoke a sense of depth and complexity. "Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way around or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves…" ~Bruce Lee

Affairs of the Heart
From the There Came a Day collection. 30" x 30" x 1.5”. Acrylic and pastel on raised wood panel by Wendy Pabich. This piece came entirely by intuition and emerged through a process of layering, scraping and mark making. I truly love this one! "And the day came when the risk to remain tight as a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom." ~Anais Nin

Blossom
From the There Came a Day collection. 30" x 40" x 1.5”. Acrylic and china marker on gallery-wrapped canvas by Wendy Pabich. This painting arose from a sentiment of spring, a longing for soft, warm air and the smell of blossoms, and an intuitive hit of pink. Using the rounded end of a soft foam roller, I sculpted, swirled and dabbed paint into blossoms and leaves, applying opaque color as background in later steps, a reverse process which resulted in an almost mysterious unveiling of final form. "And the day came when the risk to remain tight as a bud was more painful than the risk it to...
