Peaceful Waters-Original Mixed Media Painting

Peaceful Waters is an original mixed media painting by Kimara London, celebrating serenity, feminine beauty, cultural heritage and the peaceful connection between woman and nature.

A graceful black woman gazes across tranquil blue water beneath a softly painted sky. The painting comes to life through three-dimensional cowrie shells, which add beautiful texture and dimension to the composition of her blouse. Her flowing braided hair is also created with textured paint, giving the art work a tactile, sculptural quality making the painting especially distinctive.

Cowry shells have long been associated with beauty, prosperity, femininity and African cultural heritage. Which adds another layer of meaning to this piece.

Peaceful Waters brings together portraiture, texture, culture and nature to create a peaceful yet, powerful visual statement.
