You may ask, what’s so special about this artwork? How did it come into existence? Felicia has created a new technique for textured artwork by scraping, layering and digging into mat boards on canvas. As you may know, mat boards are usually used to frame art. In this case, the mat board is the artwork! Although she was told this would not work due to mat boards being so unpredictable, she conquered this material through endless experimenting until the process was perfected. The paper scrapings are not discarded. At times they are added to the painting to add additional interest and textures to the artwork.
Broward County’s Fort Lauderdale - Hollywood International Airport (FLL) in partnership with the Broward Cultural Division is proud to announce the Terminal 2 Art Gallery inaugural exhibition titled “Through New Eyes” by local artist Nava Lundy. Lundy is a nationally recognized artist best known for her series of large-scale paintings of Muses, which are Greek goddesses of poetic inspiration, featuring strong, intriguing and captivating women, and more recently for her hyper-colored paintings of animals. Located post-security, the Terminal 2 Art Gallery displays a series of animal paintings in the north area and a series of paintings inspired by Muses in the south gate area. The artwork, created exclusively for this exhibit, is layered with nuanced color and texture.
