Daffodil Series
The Daffodil Series are the five “sister” paintings to the Oceannica Series… each mindfully incorporates daffodils within the composition. This series was created to pay tribute to Nantucket Island’s annual daffodil season and festival and are slated to go to the island. These remaining four paintings, yet to be unveiled in a gallery setting, include a vintage ship with a figurehead crashing through the waves of a storm holding a bouquet of daffodils and a vintage 1960’s style flower child, whimsical “cisco” mermaid also featuring daffodils intertwined throughout, both pieces inspired by her love and appreciation of all things Nantucket and particularly the annual Nantucket Daffodil Festival which her and her fiancé attend annually with their vintage cars. Each of the paintings in this collection began with deeply layered textures on canvas built over a background of earth tones, copper and patina layered washes… gradually building up the appearance of aged paint and colors… a technique derived from her trained styles she used in her past commissions in Saint Barthelemy villa walls. Miss Palica’s new, whimsical ocean series depicts colorful creatures from the deep blue capturing moments which appear they are taken from a story leaving the viewer intrigued to learn more. This Exhibition spotlights crashing waves, unique aquatic animals, maritime voyages and seafaring vessels, each finished off with 24K gold leaf embellishments that come to life in sunlight and look moonlit as the sun sets. Each of the paintings in this series is one of a kind and the only one in existence… there are no prints or reproductions made from this series which makes them all the more unique.
