The Colours of My Other Home – Manila

Painting, oil on canvas

My major artwork focuses on my childhood home back in Manila, Philippines. It illustrates the vivid colours and energy that lingers from my memory, I hold my childhood home very close to my heart hence why I also thought it would be the perfect subject matter for my Major Artwork. Through my artwork I wanted to show a symbolism of joy that I would feel back at home.

An artistic orange brushstroke design forms abstract shapes on a white background. Overlaid on the design is the word "artexpress" in a sleek, modern black font. The orange brush strokes appear dynamic and free-flowing, with splatters and tapered ends.Simplified waratah flower in deep red colour with the words NSW Government in dark blue stacked underneath.
