Shell

Ellia K.

Watercolor

  • In my watercolor painting, I sought to capture the often overlooked beauty nestled within a gas station. I chose to paint this seemingly mundane structure, typically dismissed in our daily routines, to shed light on the beauty that goes unnoticed in our day to day lives. I chose to tint the background of the painting a purple hue to contrast and compliment the warmer tones of the gas station. By casting a unique hue upon its surroundings, I aimed to elevate this familiar scene, encouraging viewers to pause and appreciate the subtle beauty hidden in the ordinary. ’Shell’ is a celebration of the unnoticed, a testament to finding beauty in unexpected places. Through this work, I invite the audience to reconsider their perception of the commonplace, urging them to find beauty in the simplicity that surrounds us.

  • Creativity is a channel that allows me to express myself, a harmonious blend of my thoughts and ideas, finding their voice through the strokes and colors of my artwork. Creativity is the fuel for my curiosity. It is the driving force that transforms mere questions into vivid landscapes of imagination.
