Hoping for the Best is a dynamic piece of contemporary art
that showcases dualities between shapes through a limited color palette and a
restrained, yet elegant use of line and texture. This original canvas painting
presents us, the viewers, with an abstract landscape featuring prominently two
very different rectangular shapes, one haphazardly applied white circle, and a
second, more precise circle. These various shapes intermingle and create
negative space to create a varied collage of feeling and shape that will
resonate with even the most cynical of viewers. Each shape is outlined with
differing colors of paint, and brings its own distinct feeling to Hoping for
the Best. The color palette, as previously mentioned, is somewhat limited and
without much gradient, yet each color is eye catching and vibrant. The colors
showcased in this original piece of artwork include ivory, scarlet, light blue
and red. These colors all compliment one another beautifully, although they are
not often paired. The unusual effect of combining these hues makes Hoping for
the Best quite an eye catching piece that will stand out among a large
collection or create the perfect crowning element to your home décor. Viewing
this painting can be quite an educational experience. Its exploration of lines
and coexistence of vastly different shapes harkens back to pioneers of the
abstract and modern art movements. These parallels will not be lost on art
historians, but they will also, without a doubt, be noticed and appreciated by
even the most amateur of art appreciators.
Beyond the composition applied in paints by the artist of
this piece, the overarching design of Hoping for the Best is quite befitting
its feeling and mood. This painting is available for purchase on a single
canvas, square-ish in shape, and of a generous, but not overwhelming size. At
around two feet in both height and width, this painting is a perfect size. The
subjects of the painting are given plenty of space to explore their canvas,
yet, the piece is not overbearing and makes an elegant, even understated
addition to all sorts of living spaces. If you enjoy the many interesting,
modern aspects to this painting, you may want to take a few minutes to browse
