Cityscape Cubed is a perfectly whimsical painting that combines a high sense of detail, a supreme appreciation for line and contour, with an almost childlike perspective to creating a harmonious depiction of life in the city. This original canvas painting presents the viewer most immediately with a series of buildings. These buildings are all composed of thick, black lines that strongly delineate their shapes, and provides distinction between the buildings that are situated side by side. The buildings are layered into the distance, creating a fantastic sense of perspective and depth that will charm fans of more technical works of art. These buildings often feature pitch roofs, but there are an abundance of chimneys, as well as sloping and rounded roofs that provide a great deal of interest geometrically speaking, as the negative space is quite varied. The buildings themselves are done in bright colors that provide a sense of levity for the whole of Cityscape Cubed. These colors include deep, rust red, borwn, pink, yellow, green and various shades of white and blue. Springing from the far right foreground of the piece, and meandering into the depths of the city, is a small road. The perfectly applied lines that narrow in the distance provide a realistic effect in this otherwise very playful painting. The background also provides a striking detail that will immediately draw the eyes of visitors to your home. The sky in the distance is a soothing and uplifting shade of yellow that provides a significant and beautiful backdrop for the buildings that climb across it.
The design of Cityscape Cubed is an interesting one that increases the appeal of this piece for all. Instead of utilizing a single, large piece of stretched canvas, the artist has instead used two. The two pieces that comprise the whole of Cityscape Cubed are of the exact same size and rectangular shape, so they provide a similar experience to that of viewing a single canvas painting, yet, provides added theoretic interest as well.
