This piece explores the relationship between light and dark, bringing together the soft sunset warmth with the cool blues of a late spring evening. This exploration is a common theme in many of my pieces as I allow the canvas to hold not just the weight of the paint but the weight of my emotions at the time of painting. This pull towards deep blue tones is something that exists within me, but their beauty can only be seen when contrasted with burnt umber and golds.
It is this balance that I enjoy so much and obsessively paint.
Painted with large expressive brushstrokes which brings together the chaos and the calm into one beautiful piece.
