About: Crossing the boundaries of disciplines in art can be stimulating. In this series of mixed media paintings, the artist combined the ancient art of batik with the more modern medium of acrylic painting. The contrast between the free gestures of the batik and the controlled planning of the composition is an important element to me. Drawing with hot wax has to be done quickly, which brings freedom of expression. Once completed, the batik is de-constructed in some ways by the other components of the painting. The painted shapes are always organic rather than geometric, and their outlines create a bas relief by the use of fibre, adding another dimension. The last stage to be resolved is the modification of colour and tone.
"My main interest in abstract painting involves dealing with this combined challenge of structure and colour. The outcome is always unexpected. The work proceeds through layering, and intuition is integral throughout. Consequently, time away from the studio allows for the digestion of ideas. For me, a painting must evolve slowly in this way to have depth and any chance of originality. In my work, my aims are always the same: to have rhythm and harmony in the composition and to be evocative rather than descriptive. The paintings are never ‘abstracted from’ nature; rather, they are a product of it in the form of imagination. To me, abstraction can be the closest to ‘reality’ as everything is made up of patterns of form, colour and texture, right down to the microscopic level ".

It Works!
Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50
My favorite sunscreen.
Smells incredible. Reminds me of the beach every time I use it. Which is daily. Summers are brutal in the south and I don’t get paid enough for a farmers tan.
Alba has saved me. I’m hooked on it.
Also the price isn’t horrible either. Sunscreen can be so dang expensive. You get your moneys worth.

Defective item
Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50
I requested a refund or replacement as one of the two bottles that arrived. Has an issue with spraying. When I put it in the unlocked position, it does not spray I requested from the seller, but the seller wants to meet to provide proof and requesting me to upload a video. When I explained the defect, they told me to move it to unlocked position. I buy this sunscreen all the time for my kids so I’m aware of how to lock and unlock a sunscreen Unfortunately through buyer/seller messaging you’re unable to leave a video so I will unfortunately have to leave a review here. I hope the seller will resolve this defective item.
