Dulling the Blade (2016) Original Painting by Newel Hunter

"Dulling the Blade," a selection from his "Fat Black" series, is a perfect example of Hunter's highly fluid, calligraphic style -- which so often results in arresting images with a sense of depth and sculptural form. This is a bold, powerful, intriguing, minimalist and expressive black and white painting.

This piece masterfully harnesses the expressive potential of simplicity and contrast. The bold use of black and grayscale not only establishes a striking visual presence but also encourages the viewer to engage with form and movement rather than details. The fluidity conveyed through the brushwork suggests emotion and energy, drawing the eye in a circular motion around the composition. The way the different textures interact enriches the visual experience, giving the piece a tactile quality that invites closer inspection.

Painted with acrylic, edge painted white and ready to hang. At 3 x 4 feet, this image would be impressive on any wall. Carefully packaged and shipped in a double thick cardboard box for maximum protection. Accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity ensuring the collector of its originality and artistic value.
