"Built From What She Left Behind," Hand-Painted Acrylic on Canvas 15Hx20Wx1.5D by Erin McGrath Rieke
Built From What She Left Behind is an abstract work created over five years through a layered process. Paint was added, buried, and brought forward again as I lived with the quiet ache of losing someone who slipped away. Each layer carries a pulse of that absence, a trace of what lingered in the silence she left behind. The textures rise and fall like memory, forming a surface shaped by time, grief, and the slow work of accepting what could not be kept.
