If you have ever been charmed by the waters of the sea, you
will surely also be charmed by Desolate Harbor. This original canvas painting
depicts rows of sailboats harbored near the shore on a beautiful, calm sea. The
soothing characteristics of Desolate Harbor will create a feeling of harmony
wherever this painting is hung. For aquatic enthusiasts, this painting will not
fail to charm. Desolate Harbor captures something that is extremely difficult-
the fluidity of the sea, and the moments just before the sun sets entirely,
when the sun is indistinguishable, and the water simply becomes awash in gold,
almost of its own accord. The details of Desolate Harbor are a wonder to
behold. Each wave in the water is carefully orchestrated, illuminated and
shadowed at different points. The boats are uniform, as sailboats almost always
are, but different in subtle and fascinating ways that illustrates the
attention the artist devoted to the execution of this scene. The palette of
Desolate Harbor is overwhelmingly soft, so this painting would do well in a
living space with plush furniture and a sense of relaxation, or alternatively
in a stark room or office that needs more texture and a greater sense of calm.
While Desolate Harbor is a very straightforward, fairly
traditional seascape, there are more elements at work in this original piece of
art work. Desolate Harbor is split into three separate canvases, all of equal
height, but of different width and detail. This design creates added interest
and new textures and nuances to a very classic scene. The layout contributes a
new sense of geometry to this very fluid scene, creating straight lines of
blank space at several instances in the scene. The choice to use multiple
panels is a compelling one that
adds theoretic concerns to Desolate Harbor, and allows the viewer to experience
the painting in a new, deeper manner. Not only does the experience of the
painting change with its design, but the possibilities for hanging and
exploring the painting change, as well. The three pieces of Desolate Harbor can
be spaced in several interesting ways, staggered and molded to fit the specific
parameters of any room. If you would like to find more interesting explorations
