Description
This painting is a "fusion of gesture, texture, and color to rhapsodic effect. It incorporates energetic brushwork, drips, pours, and splashes, evocative of Abstract Expressionism." Painted in bright shades of green set on a background of reds, browns, and blues, this work seems to express the vibrancy of a green field backed by distant hills and sky.
Special Instructions
Measures 9 1/2 x 7 inches with a white mat and silver frame to a final dimension of 20 x 16 inches. The artist's inner landscape is mirrored on the canvas, quickened by a sense of aliveness that is raw, vibrant, and exciting. The deep, bold, earthy colors, sensual textures, and strong rhythmic forms reflect the artist's Brazilian heritage. Drawing on myth and archetype, the viewer is connected to dreams and intuition in the realm of primitive, instinctual sub-consciousness.
