Wild Blue Woods (2024)Acrylic painting
by Amanda Horvath

In creating this piece, I took inspiration from a bluebell wood near my home and captured the serenity of a mystical forest in Spring. The elements of impressionism and fine art brings to mind a semi-abstract vista that invites the viewer to experience nature's introspective tranquillity. The vivid blues and verdant hues dance together, weaving a tapestry of refreshing serenity that aims to infuse any space with the peaceful energy of a sylvan dream.
An original artwork, one of a kind, this painting has been created with high quality acrylic paints on deep edged canvas. I begin with observation of the place making notes and taking photographs to work from in the studio. From these beginnings I work intuitively, painting some base layers with a brush and then impasto techniques layer on layer applied with a palette knife. Harnessing optical mixing techniques employed by the impressionists and some of the methods of the old masters such as scumbling and glazing. I continue working until the painting reaches a natural conclusion. The result is a contemporary painting, which lies somewhere between abstraction and realism. The painting continues round the sides, a frame is not needed and it is ready to hang
