AFTER THE STORM (2026)Acrylic painting
by Marilyn Fox

AFTER the STORM Jan. 2026
I worked on this painting the last few days, after a heavy snowstorm. Everything is covered in snow! As evening set in, and the sun began to set, the entire world around me captured the nuances of reflected light: in pinks, gold, lavender and blue. I was motivated by this colorscape, and focused on the changing colors.
The brushstrokes are loose and dynamic, creating a rich textural surface and a sense of movement across the canvas. There are gestural marks that suggest organic forms and calligraphic symbols, weaving in and out of the more ethereal, misty background layers. The gold circular patterns add an element of sparkle and depth, drawing the viewer’s eye throughout the piece.
This piece beautifully captures the essence of abstract expressionism while maintaining a delicate balance between energy and subtlety.
