Celestial Scenes is the most unabashedly idyllic of all
landscapes. In this original canvas painting the viewer is presented with
something at once romantic and visually complex- full of symbolism as well as
exploration of painting technique and composition. While in many ways this is a
traditional and straightforward natural scene, it is complex just below the
surface for its technical as well as
compositional experimentation. In this painting the viewer is presented
with a lush alcove of trees situated on a peninsula. These trees are clustered
in the center of the painting, creating a visually smooth experience as the
eyes wander across the canvas. The trees are in different stages of shedding
their leaves, with some of their colors gently shifting to autumn oranges. The
trees stand on a deep green piece of land that seems just as inviting to the
viewer as it does to the assorted flora that calls it home. The waters
surrounding this piece of land are placid and a rich blue. Arcing over the
focal point of the painting across an azure colored sky is a rainbow rendered
in pastel colors of pink and yellow. This creates a whimsical feeling for the
piece that has undeniable appeal for viewers of all ages and backgrounds. The
sky itself, while brilliant in its color, is overshadowed by this luminous band
of light. Enhancing the impact of the rainbow are the clouds which meet it at
its ends. This plush looking clouds are painted unto the canvas so carefully it
almost seems as though the viewer could reach out and touch them. No matter
where you may find to hang Celestial Scenes in your home, it will, without a
doubt, becoming a point of light for all who enter.
The layout of this painting is just as stimulating as its
subject matter. Celestial Scenes comes painted across a series of three
separate canvas panels, each of uniform size and shape. These multiple pieces
create an even more diverse composition for the painting as a whole, and create
new lines and shapes the stand in contrast to the bulk of what the artist has
created on the canvas itself. If you find yourself moved by the unremittingly joyous
scene depicted in this painting, you may find more pieces of original canvas
