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!
