Original artwork description:

The Arrival

“The Arrival” emerges from a contemplation of the moments that precariously balance between the known and the unknown. This piece embodies a landscape that exists in a state of quiet before an event, an anticipation so tangible that the very sky seems to hold its breath. The textured strokes and the earthy palette evoke a sense of the familiar, grounding the viewer in a world that is recognizably ours, yet not quite.

At the center, the crimson and azure form looms—a silent herald of change. Its presence is as enigmatic as it is commanding, dominating the horizon and casting its reflection upon the world below. The tiny figures, bathed in a sliver of golden light, stand witness to this unfolding scene, their stillness a sharp contrast to the monumental shift that looms above.

I’ve aimed to capture the duality of trepidation and awe, the human experience of witnessing something utterly transformative. With each stroke, I’ve layered not just paint, but the complexity of emotion that such an encounter elicits. “The Arrival” is not just an event; it is the embodiment of all the arrivals we await in life, each bringing its own tide of change.

43x58cm Oil on Loose Linen canvas with extra canvas surround around 8 cm for stretching or attaching to backboard of frame.
