Violet Tempest is a large, abstract painting that mixes traditional landscape elements with fauvist colors

Violet Tempest is a large, abstract painting that mixes traditional landscape elements with fauvist colors and bold lines that creates an imaginative and compelling emotional landscape that will effect even the most jaded of art critics. Across the canvas stretches a brilliant sky of vibrant colors featuring purple-blue clouds and streaks of red and yellow. In shadow against this brilliant sky is a rolling horizon and the skeleton of a tall tree. The stark contrast between the tree and the dazzling hues of the sky create a beautiful contrast and forces the viewer to ask himself or herself “what is the true subject of this painting?” It is an interesting point of exploration in Violet Tempest. Not only is this original canvas artwork compelling from a theoretical standpoint, but it is exceedingly beautiful in many respects, from it's composition to it's palette to it's general mood. This painting would make an attractive addition to any number of spaces, decors and the like. The ambiance of this painting is both relaxing and thought provoking, making it perfect for a study or some similar space that requires both intellectualism and tranquility in it's décor.

The design of Violet Tempest is equally fascinating as it's portrayal of the earth. This large canvas painting is in fact, composed of two canvases that when hung together create an entire scene. This stylistic choice is interesting because it splits the landscape of Violet Tempest exactly down the middle. The lines of the horizon, of the tree branches and the streaks across the sky are all bisected by the edges of the canvases. This allows the viewer to compartmentalize and explore each section of canvas more fully, as well as appreciate the seamlessness of the lines and scenery despite the break between the two pieces of the painting. There, of course, are more added benefits to the multi-panel construction of Violet Tempest, for instance, the increased possibilities for hanging, viewing and experiencing this one-of-a-kind piece.
