Additional Information

Blue Haven by Petra Meikle de Vlas is a 3 dimensional, aerial view of a patch on the Great Barrier Reef.

A mixed media fluid painting on a wooden panel.

This collection represents the effects of reactions between mixed mediums. The power of the chemistry between these pigments carried by different mediums, attracting or repelling each other sometimes results in beautiful formations.
Before being sealed, a single painting could have had multiple layers of work on it, ranging from the original pour, to sanding back looking for patterns under dried paint, rubbing in ink or more paint to stain or add colour, and in general working on and enhancing areas where possible.
These Formations are then preserved by a coating of a premium quality finish (resin, satin or matte Varnish) on a ready-to-hang, multi-directional board.
