Ocean Drive (2017)Acrylic painting
by Paul J Best

Large ( 40" x 30" - 102cm x 76cm) painting. Continuing my 'powerful places ' series of paintings. This painting draws on my memories of Ocean Drive, South Beach Miami, Florida. There are some fantastic art deco buildings here and some classic retro hotels and diners.

This painting incorporates my characteristic use of reflective paints to capture the Florida light. I have incorporated a range of sumptuous 'Golden' paints, iridescent gold, ultramarine blue, ultramarine violet, interference violet, phthalo blue, phthalo green, cadmium yellow primrose and iridescent pearl to attempt to capture those art deco pastel shades. We are worth it !

The painting comes to life under varying lighting conditions. Artificial light accentuates the reflective quality of the painting ( please see last image )


Created on a Reeves cross braced deep box canvas, painted white on the sides, so you may choose not to frame. However I believe that a plain white frame would be beneficial. Initialled on the front and signed on the back and supplied with a certificate of authenticity.

Corded and ready to hang.

I will only charge what the maximum of what the shipping costs state and if it is less than my shipping charges state then I will always refund the difference.
