Abstract Expressionism Painting, Colorful Contemporary Art “Untethered Happiness 3” by International Abstract Realism Artist Arrachme 






Peaceful, uplifting, inspiring abstracts; I was thinking of the movement of people in social groups. It is that feeling that causes that sense of joyful freedom as an individual or when visiting with family and friends. Sometimes it is evoked by simply walking down the street. Is it necessary to physically interact with others to experience happiness or can interaction with lines, vivid colors, and shapes from nature produce the same results?


48 x 36 acrylic, oil, and cold wax on canvas Untethered Happiness can be exhibited vertical or horizontal. All three pieces can stand on their own or be moved in any sequence, even upside down to created different viewpoints. They would exhibit beautifully together as shown above.

The Io Moth, Automeris io, is sexually dimorphic, males having bright yellow forewings, body, and legs, while females have reddish brown forewings, body, and legs. The males also have much bigger plumose (feathery) antennae than the females. Both have one big black to bluisheyespot with some white in the center, on each hindwing, a defense mechanism meant to frighten off potential predators. The caterpillars turn bright green and have many spines that cause a lot of pain if touched. The spines have a poison that is released with the slightest touch. The Io Moth is depicted here on the Eastern Redbud, Forest Pansy, Cercis canadensis.
