Original artwork description:

This commanding oil on canvas by the contemporary British artist Kirsty Wain captures the vibrant energy and lush scenery of the famous natural waterfalls, Les Fonts d'Algar, in the province of Alicante, Spain.

Wain utilizes an intensely expressive style, drawing heavily from Post-Impressionism and Fauvism, characterized by a highly saturated and non-naturalistic color palette. The work is a powerful study of movement and light:

Color and Light: The composition is dominated by swirling, expressive brushstrokes of electric blue and aqua, vividly depicting the flowing, cool water of the river. This dynamic foreground contrasts sharply with the verticality of the surrounding trees, whose trunks are rendered in striking, unnatural hues of violet, magenta, and cyan. The foliage is treated with thick, bright dabs of lime and emerald green, creating a rich canopy.

Brushwork: The paint is applied liberally with bold impasto, giving the work a strong tactile quality. The vigorous, patterned brushwork generates a sense of perpetual motion in the water, setting it against the stillness of the framing trees.

Composition: The eye is drawn through a tunnel of stylized trees on the left, which frame the rapid descent of the river over mauve and ochre-toned river stones. The background includes a structured stone wall in deep shadow, anchoring the wildness of the natural scene.

This piece is a fantastic example of contemporary expressive landscape painting, transforming a famous natural site into a highly personal, emotional, and decorative statement. It is a stunning feature artwork ideal for collectors seeking modern landscape art with exceptional chromatic intensity.

Provenance: Directly from the artist's studio.
