Series: Flowers of Wedded Bliss
About the Work: August 19, 2024-A selection of the artist’s newest series “Flowers of Wedded Bliss” where the artist collaborates with wedding photographers and paints the beautiful flower arrangements from photos taken during the most wonderful day in people’s lives. Weddings are all about expression of style, amazing moments and strong emotions. The artist works to embrace all of that in one painting from a very special time. Lavender Haze was from a wedding in Austin, Texas where the bride insisted on giant coral pink peonies accented with white orchids in a stone vase. The walls of the venue were a beautiful mixture of deep rich blues and purples in Venetian plaster. Her bridesmaids were all in lavender dresses (that can be worn again, of course). As they were ready to begin the ceremony, the photographer captured the largest of bouquets on a platform next to an ornate mirror. Turning this into a painting has allowed the artist to enhance the colors, deepen the walls and brighten the flowers but most importantly capturing the lavender in the mirror reflection holding on to that mixture of excitement from a once in a lifetime event.
Title of Piece: Across From You
Artist: Dora Kearney
Size: 40x30x1.5
Medium: Acrylic on Canvas
Price: $1,950
About the Piece:
Across From You focuses on the emotional space between people-the quiet place where connection, understanding, and belonging are formed. The two figures lean toward one another with mirrored energy, symbolizing intimacy, dialogue, and mutual recognition. Their bold. Colors and fragmented forms remain distinct while still creating visual harmony, reflecting the balance between individuality and togetherness. The piece speaks to the idea that home is often discovered not in a place, but in relationships and moments of shared presence.
About the Artist:
Dora’s “Portraits Without Names” series explores the idea that home is shaped through connection, memory, identity, and shared human experience rather than physical location alone. Using constructed faces, bold color relationships, and simplified geometric forms, I create figures that are intentionally universal, allowing viewers to project themselves and their communities into the work. These paintings examine how people coexist, communicate, and find belonging across cultural and emotional boundaries. For The Shape of Home/Placemaking, the selected works reflect the belief that home can exist in relationships, collective humanity, and the spaces we create together.
