“2021 Farrago” by Hailey E. Herrera, watercolor batik, 16”X20”.
An abstract watercolor batik painting with disarray of colors and red drops. I finished this painting in the beginning of 2021 after a year of turmoil, contemplating a new year with hope that life will return to normal. Colors look disarray at first yet look cheerful. Color of 2020, blue on side with disarray elements transits to Color of 2021, illuminating yellow and gray, which expresses a message of positivity, resilience, and hope.
