About this artwork
The painting depicts a flowering Elder scrub, called Black Lace. Black Lace has dark stems and leaves, and its flower is a pinkish white. It is its stunning contrast of colors, which first interested the artist. Robin Ballard began by painting a dark background. Loosely drawing the flowers' forms, she combined a watery mixture of pink and white acrylic. She then painted in the leaves, using whimsical forms to create a sense of life and movement.…
The painting is engaging as it combines both a sense of realism and abstraction. “Elder” is stretched on a frame and is easy to hang.

« My art is associative. It’s how I interpret the world around me. »
Robin Ballard is an exciting Swiss painter who has exhibited her work nationally. In her paintings, she primarily reflects on contemporary issues such as migration, the rise of China and global dependency on crude oil, seeking not to impose any particular stance but rather to provoke thought and introspection. Ballard additionally enjoys the play between abstract and realistic representation, expertly navigating both to compose a body of work that showcases impressive diversity across a range of styles, subjects and forms.
