Art for a narrow wall: These three semi-abstract paintings of the redwood forest pair nature imagery with an abstract art style.
Tower in the Gray
This painting is called “Tower in the Gray.” It features the towering trunk of a giant redwood tree, its reddish-brown color standing out from the neutral tones in the rest of the image.
The giant tree trunk, hundreds of feet tall, soars up into a cloudy, gray sky. The photos that inspired this painting were taken during the winter, on a day when the sky was bright but also misty and gray.
Up close, the painting becomes more purely abstract. Black, gray, and white blend together in wild broad strokes, forming unexpected lines and blocky shapes in the sky.
The colors overlap and blend in various ways among the bold marks in the paint made with the artist’s tools.
The closer you look, the more abstract the painting becomes.
The edges of the wood panel are painted a dark charcoal gray, for a sleek, modern look.
This painting is 12″ wide and 48″ tall, perfect for filling a narrow wall with art!
Triplets
This painting is titled “Triplets” because it features three giant redwood trees growing in a cluster together, their massive trunks reaching up into the sky, where the tops of the trees converge.
The deep red-orange colors in the tree trunks contrast beautifully against the bright light of the sky.
Bold, decisive shapes form the tops of the trees and the negative space of the sky beyond them.
This painting is perfect for someone who loves the expressive nature of abstract art, as well as the inspiring imagery of the great outdoors.
This tall and narrow painting is a bold and elegant statement piece.
Diamond Aether
This painting is titled “Diamond Aether.”
The shimmery blue and white filling the center of the image is reminiscent of a gleaming diamond, and the word aether, from ancient mythology, references fresh air and clear skies.
The top of the painting is purely abstract up close, full of hard angles and bold blocks of dark and light colors butting up against each other.
The diamond-gleam of blue is luminous against the white sky and the darker forms of the trees.
The bottom area is full of blocky areas of green and black, which create an image of the forest floor.
This painting is 48″ x 12″.
It’s perfect for filling a narrow wall, where larger decor cannot fit, with a colorful, inspiring piece of art.
