Original artwork description
“No Line On the Horizon” is an acrylic on canvas painting 72cmsW x102cmsH x3.5cmsD in a pine frame. The painting continues the series of land, sea and sky. It takes its name from a U2 song of the same name. The painting is inspired by sunrise as dawn is breaking over the beach close to where I live. I start by walking and looking. I take photographs which I use to make drawings from. Then I paint, with no attempt to copy either drawing of photograph, just to capture the atmosphere. Please see the photographs that document this inspirational setting. This painting intends to capture the dramatic atmosphere of a rainy morning just as the sun rises. Light from the early morning sun is breaking through the clouds and cascades onto the wet beach reflecting a glowing light. This isn’t a literal painting. It doesn’t attempt to replicate a ‘scene’, but it does try to capture the atmosphere of an open coastal landscape. I see this as a meditative painting absorbed in reflective and considered thought. I look to artists such as Barbara Rae, Mark Rothko, JMW Turner, the Fauvists and Monet and the Post-Impressionists for inspiration. The work is shipped in a heavy duty card crate.
