Looking Forward (2026) Original Acrylic Painting by Newel Hunter

Looking Forward is the story of a bold redhead with her mind made up. Time to take the future on, full-frontal. What’s behind is behind. What’s forward is yet to be. All okay. No matter what, she’s taking the first step.

This painting’s strength lies in its expressive use of color and texture, a Hunter hallmark. The rich layering invites viewers to experience the piece on both a visual and tactile level, catching light in different ways. This suggests a thoughtful exploration of physicality in art. The contrast between the bold reds and the more subtle greens and yellows creates a compelling visual tension that holds attention. There is a clear sense of movement and depth, which keeps the eye engaged across the canvas.

Looking Forward is painted with acrylic on an 11 x 14 x .2-inch canvas panel, ready to frame. It comes carefully packaged and shipped in a heavy-duty cardboard box. Accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity.
