One of a pair of textured abstract landscape paintings, created simultaneously in early 2026. Employing strips of cardboard and waste paper, heavy layers of paint have been scratched and partially removed resulting in a tension filled piece. However, the subdued, minimal colour palette adds an air of calm to the piece.  by

Description

This captivating original oil painting, “Isolation 2,” is a testament to the beauty found in raw texture and thoughtful composition. Created with oil and scraps of cardboard on canvas, this small piece features an abstract landscape that feels both dynamic and serene. Heavy layers of paint, selectively scratched and removed, resulting in a wonderfully tactile surface, a dance of rough, scratchy lines that evokes a sense of raw energy and tension.

Despite the energetic application, the subdued, minimal color palette imbues the artwork with a profound sense of calm. The interplay of light and shadow across the textured surface adds depth, making “Isolation 1” a moody yet graphic piece that draws the viewer in. It’s a contemporary abstract expressionist work that speaks to the quiet moments within a complex world, perfect for adding a touch of thoughtful introspection to your home.
