New York State of Mind (acrylic on canvas) by Hyacinth Paul, Ph.D. New York State of Mind is an acrylic on canvas painting developed for the physicians of New York serving the patients during the Pandemic. It depicts the chaos that still exists - in shades of orange, black, brown and ochre, the uncertainty that is COVID-19 is the randomness of the painting, the little rays of sunshine are depicted in yellow when the hard work pays off and the smiles of grateful patients lights up when they recover and go home, the red blood and invisible sweat that is shed by everyone in the front-lines, the blue suggests that even amidst the dark realities there will be blue skies ahead.

Golden Rain I (acrylic on canvas) by Hyacinth Paul, Ph.D. Golden Rain I is the result of a painting I was developing but stopped short of progressing further. I love the simplicity of this splatter action abstract painting. I generally use several layers on my abstract painting but this one was so pretty at this stage that I decided to stop and make it a series of three paintings. I hope you will enjoy this painting as much as I do. The simplicity of this painting speaks to me. I can see this abstract art is a contemporary home. It will complement the decor with its dark Prussian blue background with yellow splatter paint drops. It has a very good fun element to it and I hope will put a smile on the viewer with its sunny, free willed style!
