Fire

Original Artwork by Beth Inglish

Fire was created during an immersive mark-making session where movement, music, and intuition led the process. I had multiple canvases spread across my studio, painting with my whole body, dancing, layering color, and letting energy move freely without a plan.

This piece emerged as heat and momentum. Bold red and pink strokes collide and overlap, carrying a sense of urgency, intensity, and activation. Fire is not about control — it’s about ignition. The moment something inside you wakes up and says yes.

Mark making is one of my primary practices because it allows emotion to exist before it is translated into language. Fire holds raw creative force. It reflects courage, forward motion, and the spark that pushes us into action even when things feel uncertain.

This painting carries the energy of initiation — the moment before transformation begins.
