“Love in 40 mins” Kavir Mootoo, 2021. Acrylic + 3D paint on 2 4”x6” canvas boards. (Framed) (*SOLD*)

US$50.00

I’ve been thinking of love and Valentine’s day and what love is and one morning recently, I felt what I think could be love.  

I had gotten these two canvases + green acrylic paint a few days before.  I love when a canvas calls me like it did THAT MORNING. I wanted to do two separate pieces that went together in some way and I started.

I normally can’t wait long enough to put on a base before I start painting but decided to do it in this case because there were marks on the canvas that I didn’t like.  

I went through my paint recently and found some I hadn’t thought of in a long time – an iridescent turquoise, an iridescent pearl, a silver glitter and I added a red that I used recently in another painting which stood out to me and which I love!

What I felt through the process was “being called” as though I HAD TO and really WANTED TO – like there was no questioning. 

It felt pure. For about 40 mins, I let colour and brush speak to me and I did exactly as I was called to.  

This is like a snap-shot of that period of time for me – maybe it’s what my mind looked like at that point – maybe it’s what my heart looked like.

I don’t know what someone else will see but it’s almost like I see the whole universe and my spirit, soul and a deep recess in my stomach in this. 

This painting is offered as part of the wonderful #artistsupportpledge (please see photos for details).
