"Elephant", mixed media on canvas, 24" x 24", 2023
Huppman has always been drawn to the subtleties of neutral and earth tones. She finds their simplicity, strength and honesty soothing and contemplative. This is an intuitive abstract painting with nuanced texture. As this painting was being completed it struck the artist as reminiscent of an elephant. This is fitting as there is a skin like quality as well as a wild primitiveness.
