This original canvas painting depicts a smooth waterway in the sinking city of Venice, Italy. A well celebrated and fantastically beautiful subject, this has been painted many times. Yet, here, the artist has taken a very creative approach to the subject that breathes new life into the cherished subject. This piece focuses on the a bridge that arcs over the water, linking two pieces of land upon which are built a number of closely placed buildings. The bridge and the water here of an expected and natural color, yet the houses are bold in their geometrics, and even more wild in their coloration. Instead of the traditional stucco colors and neutral terracotta roofs, the artist has used neon green, bright yellow, deep purple and light blue to paint these houses, giving the romantic scene a modern flair! With a perfect sense of perspective, the buildings and water fade into the background, as if they stretch off into the distance forever. The sky in the far background of Luminous Bridges is a slate shade of blue and gray that promises not to distract from the powerful subjects in the foreground of the piece. The traditional subject of this painting, fused with the utterly modern and playful colors make Luminous Bridges a perfectly balanced painting that has much to contribute to the atmosphere of any living or working space. Wherever you choose to hang this painting, you will not be disappointed by the wonderful mood it promises to create.
The design of Luminous Bridges further emphasizes the contemporary focus of the piece's creator. Instead of using a large, single canvas, the artist has instead used four different rectangular canvas pieces to create the unique composition seen here. The breaks between each of the canvases emphasizes the vertical lines that dominate the subjects, and also creates meaningful opportunities for the viewer to pause and adjust their focus before moving on to a different portion of the piece.
