Original artwork description:

Fire is one of the elemental forces of Nature. Something happens to us when we sit before fires: new feelings come up within us; new visions come to us, visions that were not there before. A fire shifts the mood to one of purpose and possibility. No matter where a fire happens to be, it weaves its spell. The fire is an essential ritual for humanity.

The “fire” metaphor is useful because it is universal and timeless in its appeal.

These are just some of my thoughts when creating this oil painting. I saw the struggle between light and dark, warmth and cold, material and the ethereal. I hope it will sparkle your own imagination too.

Painted after life, alla prima, using high-quality oil paints on a gessoed canvas panel. Varnished for dust and UV-protection.

Signed on the front and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.

IMPORTANT!

Please note, the secondary image in the frame is shown only as a suggestion on how it would look framed and in context. This artwork is sold unframed.

The painting is carefully packed, sandwiched between two cardboard sheets and layered with bubble wrap to protect them and ensure the painting will reach you safely.

World Wide shipping takes around 10 days to arrive, depending on the destination.

Displayed image size of the painting can vary from the actual size.

If you have any questions about, for instance, a tailor made order or discount when purchasing more than one painting please send me a message. I’ll be happy to answer all your questions.
