Against the Wind. This painting uses, as its foundation, a found historic B&W photo showing a neighbourhood under flood waters in the 1950s. These two men appear to have been sent out to gather supplies, despite the buffeting winds and high water levels, and the last of the storm’s rain. The contrast of their seemingly ordinary task with the extraordinary surroundings was captivating. The colour was inspired by other found vintage polaroids which had skewed with age into playful bubble-gum colours. What fun!
This is an original painting study. Even if you’ve just got a small corner of wall, there are a number of little gems to choose from!
You can view all available studies or view all available original paintings in the shop.
Acrylic on canvas mounted to cradled wood panel, 8” x 8”
Signed in the lower corner of the artwork.
Hangs flush to the wall with a concealed wire. The sides of the cradled panel are painted in a solid colour that is harmonious with the artwork. You could choose to hang it as-is, or place it in a floater frame – whichever suits your tastes and your home.
I love studies for the life and energy they capture! They show the thought process of the artist and have an intimacy and immediacy to them that finished studio work sometimes doesn’t. They are also a very affordable way to collect original works of art!
Wouldn’t you love this little one-of-a-kind painting?
