Contemporary Array
This canvas artwork is an eclectic piece that takes various styles, shapes and colors and harmonizes them on a single, lovely canvas. The piece blends both spherical and square shapes as well as muted and bold colors, not to mention contrasting painting styles that lend the painting a very contemporary feel, hence it's name. This painting uses heavy, textured paints and brush strokes and well blended colors as well as heavy, more opaque and bold paints. These many contrasts are what make this piece truly interesting, very modern and the source of unlimited interest for the viewer. The background mixes dark, dramatic hues in a fresco-style that gives the impression of texture and depth, while the squarish shapes in the foreground make the whole piece pop with bright colors and more solid lines. The geometry of this original canvas is very interesting as well.
The canvas incorporates smooth, rounded lines as well as very defined square shapes. The distinction and layering of the two make the piece more audacious and original. The colors themselves are very daring, and would surely add a little spark to any room. The colors and styles, while overall a very modern piece, add to the painting a traditional sensibility that is very difficult to find in many abstract paintings.
The painting's size and single canvas style are a continuation of this authentic, traditional element in this otherwise very modern and unique original painting. The single canvas layout makes the process of selecting an appropriate space and hanging the painting a very easy one, and it allows an individual to fit the canvas into more spaces. In addition, because the painting comes in a very traditional, single canvas package, it is more suitable for a vast number of rooms and decor. If you are attracted to the breadth of possibilities presented in a painting such as this one, you will want to peruse the Abstract Canvas gallery of CanvasPaintings.com where you will find more dynamic and forward thinking original canvas paintings that marry different aesthetics together in a single piece.
