Still Pushing

Since I first started painting as a meditative practice, about 4 years ago, layered abstracts have been, and still are, a very common theme in my work. I've always 'built' the piece from the bottom up. The topmost part often depicts sky and/or trees, shrubs, plants, organic matter. I have a visceral feeling when I paint one; it's like pushing and pushing up from the depths of the earth until I break through to the light. Each painting I complete, serves as a record of my process to move up through the obstacles and reach the light. I find this approach restorative and energizing. One does what one needs to, to hang on to the positive. Here's a recent example.

“Andrea Feldman's beautiful "Breaking Through", pan watercolor and oil pastel print on metal. Love this piece and the super innovative approaches Feldman has to art making. Just one of 42 pieces from 7 artists that comprise the "Scapes" exhibit in both gallery spaces at the Whitney Center for the Arts.”
