30x40" acrylic/mixed media on canvas. Why is this painting called DIMINUENDO?
Most of the names for my work come to me when I'm lying awake at 2am, so I didn't know why when I first picked the name, but I usually connect the dots at some point. Here's my interpretation, but as with all good art, you're open to your own.
DIMINUENDO is loud, dark and brooding on one side and gradually fading into a quiet whisper at the other end. Just like the meaning of the word in music terms.
As Teddy Roosevelt said, "Speak softly, and carry a big stick". I wrote that quote down in my journal over 15 years ago and have always loved it for the encouragement it gives to introverts like me, who have to be assertive and driving in their day-to-day life.
Sometimes the quiet things in life have the greatest power.
This painting comes pre-framed in a Nordic white oak frame, included in price.
