Ana Hefco   New & remarkable Artists

Original, one-of-a-kind, hand-painted, inspired by the aerial view of The Bahamas and Turks And Caicos Islands from my last vacation there Dealing with depression, PTSD, and anxiety, painting is a form of therapy for me. In this painting I create a peaceful and safe space for the child and adult in me both, a place to freely express myself and where I can just be. As always this space is a beach, with healing vibes and powdery sand, where calm lucent ocean waters splash frothy waves on my feet, where I feel free and loved just the way I am. Due to the techniques used, this painting cannot be reproduced, repeated, or recreated. Every painting obtained through these fluid painting techniques happens only once in an infinity of attempts. Due to its glossy finish, it's impossible to take perfect photos of the painting and be able to capture all the details that emerge between layers in one same photo or to photograph it without having objects reflecting onto its surface. Different kinds of light & angles make looking at it a continuous process of discovery always looking slightly different & never boringly predictable This painting does not need to be framed, the painted image extends on the sides, it is wired, signed, ready to hang, and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity. All my paintings are painted in layers and that gives them a tridimensional aspect with intricate details that add richness and depth to the final image. These painting techniques make the paintings unique and impossible to recreate and reproduce, thus even more special. Every painting obtained through these fluid painting techniques happens only once in an infinity of attempts.
