"Grace", Gold Abstract Painting
A B O U T T H I S P I E C E :
“Grace” is a piece created by letter art inspired by graffiti by Addison Jones featuring her unique text previously featured in her portrait art collection. Each painting is produced using all the same method but unique in its own way. Addison previously utilized text to create texture and depth in her portraits. After realizing the impact of her text, she decided to feature them singularly in a new collection titled ALL CAPS. This painting is all done using gold paint and hand etching into it.
All of Addison's text in her paintings are her journal. She uses it as an artist expressions and does not read them afterwords because it is a release for her. She comes from a graphic design background and loves using text as a texture.
This is a hand-signed piece with a certificate of authenticity.
“I am someone that needs structure to create. The fundamental structure of the paintings have always started with a portrait. Next, I would add text to created depth. through the response of my clients, I started noticing how impactful the text was on my pieces. This evolved into this graphic, raw, style of art. When thinking about the material I wanted something modern and organic to create a nice juxtaposition.”
