River City Painting Slate Blue and Copper - Mist on the City - Abstract Architecture Edition

The visual

The composition displays large vertical blocks, like pillars or facades, treated in a range of slate blue and anthracite gray. Touches of copper and ochre pierce the material, bringing a warm light to the heart of a cold palette. The center of the work opens onto a clearer expanse, evoking calm water that reflects the surrounding shapes. The textures alternate between grainy impasto and watercolor washes, creating a striking contrast of material. Splashes of black, resembling ink splashes, punctuate the top of the canvas. Cream white structures the whole in breathing zones, balancing the density of the dark masses. The whole evokes a dissolved architecture, between ruin and pictorial reverie.
