Flourescent, luminous, bold and exciting, City by Dawn is a wild interpretation of a city scene that will enchant viewers, particular city dwellers. With a profound sense of contrast and a seamless integration of abstract styles, City by Dawn is a striking piece of art that will liven up any décor. This original canvas painting depicts a classic and simple scene- a city by night. The darkened buildings rise out of the tangled web of lines below, creating beautiful shapes against the luminous skies. While the buildings are almost entirely black, their windows are illuminated, a beautiful and touching detail that really resonates. The blackness of the buildings extends toward to the base of the piece, where the blackness creates a backdrop for an array of colored lines that sweep across the piece. These lines are applied to the canvas in colors such as red, white and pink, which are intensified by the black that dominates the piece, and perfectly compliments the lightening sky in the background. The sky that stands as the backdrop to the city suggests the first blushes of the sunrise, as white is present near the center of the piece, and reds and pinks move outward from that central point. These bold colors allow the buildings to become more eye catching. The colors of City by Dawn darken around the edges of the piece, tunneling the focus of the viewer to the most compelling portions of the painting. This unique piece of canvas artwork makes a stellar addition to a city loft or apartment, or it can bring a bit of metropolitan flair into a more rural retreat. Regardless of where you choose to display City by Dawn, it will charm viewers of all ages and tastes, as well as provide a point of light for your décor.
The design of City by Dawn is one that very aptly brings contemporary aesthetic to an otherwise very straightforward piece of art. Instead of using a single large canvas to display this scene on, the artist has instead opted to use three different canvas panels. Each of these canvas pieces is of the very same size and shape, creating a nice uniformity among the pieces. The artist has favored width here, over height, creating an attractive expansiveness.
