Sinking in the sand

£2,500.00

Abstract, Oil on canvas, 100cm x 150cm.

This large oil painting depicts in abstract, a very special moment. My wife and I stood in the sand on the coast in Dubai, where we had our first trip together as a couple, and shared childhood memories of “Sinking in the sand” on trips to the beach.

This painting was created using a palette knife technique. The oils are thickly applied and blended by slowly cross-hatching around the canvas, loading the knife with every scrape and passing it on creating a unique texture that looks almost like it has been woven with a fabric made of oil paint.

The colours are ochres and deep blues, blended with black and white to create striking contrasts. This technique creates unique colour details with every stroke, that you can stare at for hours and find new meanings, new scenes and emotions with every viewing.
