Painted in bold washes of gray-green hues on Belgian linen, this serene artwork captures four birds in motion. Rather than striving for precise likenesses, I focus on simplifying the birds’ shapes to convey the essence of their forms and inherent behaviors. The painting technique is central to evoking the impression of a fleeting moment within a rustic setting. Loose, wet paint is allowed to bleed and flow freely across the canvas surface, creating a dynamic sense of energy and movement.
The minimalist floating metal frame by Nielsen, finished in silver, beautifully complements the soft, contrasting tones of the oil pigments, enhancing the overall presentation.
