Description
With “Prickly Pear 1”, Catherine Macaulay returns to one of her favourite studies. As she meditates on the Grasslands landscape outside her home and studio windows, Catherine’s modern flower painting contributes to the traditions of her chosen medium. Catherine explores shadows, light and intensity of colour, and her great understanding of her chosen medium and a lifelong commitment to really seeing show us the valuable around us.
“Prickly Pear 1” by Catherine Macaulay is painted on Aquabord. Aquabord is crafted for watercolour from hardboard protected with an archival seal. The surface is then coated with an acid-free clay and mineral ground with a texture similar to cold-pressed watercolour paper. Colours retain a remarkable purity and vibrancy, and Aquabord allows artists to frame and display their watercolour without glass.
