About the art
Artist statement
Lucerne, Switzerland. A beautiful sunset warms up the sky with intense orange hues. The mountains, with their forests and rocky edges, begin to transform into surreal beings: textures start to appear, surfaces of color to form. The lake shimmers with purple beauty.
A mood of whimsical mystique is in the air, as the last hours of the day come to a glorious, poetic end. Switzerland, the country of infinite beauty, goes to rest.
The artist uses spray paints to create a vivid background and then squishes oil paints directly out of the tube to make the mountains in the foreground. This technique creates a richly textured surface that invites viewers to feel the rich oil paints with their fingers.
The vibrant colors and thick oil paint create a painterly effect that is sure to catch the eye of any art lover. Vibrant blues and greens contrast against the green mountains, making for an unforgettable piece that you'll be proud to display in your home.
