Bloomstone

"Bloomstone" by Michael Barringer is a mixed media piece on canvas, measuring 36 x 48 inches. This artwork combines vibrant colors and intricate textures to create a dynamic composition.

"Bloomstone" speaks of the mystery of vibrant life arising from the seemingly inanimate realm. Bloom from stone.On top of the background of cool blues and grays (water and stone), Barringer layered forms suggesting blooms, seed pods, vines, leaves and other organic entities. However, a closer look will reveal that embedded in the background are forms waiting to surface and realize incarnation - circles, ovals, triangles, which symbolize some of the fundamental geometry found in nature.
