The painting uses a vivid and dynamic color scheme, featuring a harmonious blend of cool tones (blues and purples) with accents of warm hues (reds, pinks, and yellows). The contrast between the cool and warm tones creates visual tension and balance.
The brushstrokes appear expressive and spontaneous, suggesting movement and energy. The textures vary throughout the piece, with areas of thick impasto layered against smoother, blended sections, adding depth.
The composition is abstract, with no clear central focus, encouraging the viewer’s eye to move freely across the canvas. Diagonal lines dominate the structure, adding a dynamic and flowing quality to the piece.
There is a notable tactile quality in the painting due to the visible layering of paint and textural elements.
The use of glossy or reflective elements adds a modern and polished feel to the work.
The interplay of vibrant purples and blues evokes a sense of calm and introspection, while the sudden bursts of red inject passion and intensity. The abstract nature invites open interpretation, potentially evoking different emotions based on the viewer's state of mind.
The painting aligns with abstract expressionist traditions, emphasizing emotion and movement over representational forms. The layering of colors and loose, spontaneous strokes suggest a connection to action painting techniques.
The juxtaposition of complementary colors (purple and yellow, blue and red) creates visual harmony while maintaining vibrancy.
The work may represent fleeting moments of emotion or energy, as indicated by the title and the dynamic composition. The flowing, intersecting lines suggest a narrative of chaos and order, reflecting the transient nature of life and experiences.
Given its vibrant color palette and reflective qualities, this painting would look stunning in a well-lit space, either under natural or directed light. Pairing it with minimalistic decor would allow the artwork to be the focal point of the room.
Maggie Romanovici was born in Romania, during the Communist dictatorship. In a closed society, there was an attraction to the arts and culture in general, as the only escape in life. Maggie showed a natural inclination towards drawing and colored pencils early on. In elementary school, teachers noticed that Maggie was very talented at drawing. Her father, also having had a penchant for painting, exerted an important influence on the artistic development of his daughter.
Maggie began to attend art school. Here, for six years, she formally learned drawing, watercolor, oil painting, and whatever else the school curriculum contained. Then she continued to hone her skills in private lessons with consecrated local painters. Her first participation in an exhibition was at age 12, with an oil painting. Others followed.
Because the Communist regime in her native Romania did not favor an artistic career, Maggie chose to teach languages. The contact with art never left her, but it was just later in her life and in Canada that Maggie returned to painting full time.
The first years are dedicated to figurative painting, but gradually Maggie discovers the freedom of expression offered by abstract painting. She has continued to take art classes on new techniques and materials to enrich and polish her way of expressing herself. Her curiosity and desire to progress remain constant.
Maggie is a member of several artists associations and is a professional member of RAAV . To date, Maggie has participated in more than 80 exhibitions and her paintings are found in Canada and Europe. She lives in Montreal.
ARTIST’S STATEMENT
I draw my inspiration from my many life experiences lived in different countries, trips to several others, moments in everyday life, culture and nature.
I am comfortable with oil and acrylic, but I like to dip into watercolor or ink and alcohol. I also favor the mixed media by the introduction of collages, the mixing of mediums, modelling paste, gold, silver, fabrics, etc. I favor the superposition of the color strokes with the spatula, but I also love smooth glazing effects. I produce abstract works in which the ideas, the emotions are seized by the colors and by the movements. The resulting paintings are distinguished by bright, vibrant colors, surprising textures, fluid and dynamic movements, which give a real feast to the eyes and nourish the spirit. The brushstrokes or spatula always give direction and fluidity to the creation, easy to follow by the eye.
For me, painting is very personal. By immersing myself in it, I become increasingly free and self-revealing. The resulting painting is nothing but an exchange between my inner world and the outer one.
Painting is also a journey that begins with feeling, then thought. Shape and color follow with the harmony between texture and gesture, with the subtle balance between light and shadow. I try to make the ordinary extraordinary and I use all the means to reach my goal: I brush, I drip, I sand, I scrape, so that my works present texture, depth, a weaving of colors that give them a unique signature.
As an artist, I honestly hope my artwork calls for the participation of the audience to the same extent as my involvement in it.
