Cresting Gold Print

When I began Cresting Gold, I challenged myself to create a landscape with the least detail and realism, but capture depth and grandeur. I selected a neutral grey for my sky and then allowed myself only two colors with which to convey my landscape. I sketched a rough plan with graphite then dropped into my bliss. In this work, I love the canvas showing through and the pediments of my marks. There are moments of translucency and moments of impasto. I worked with brushes and my fingers to create my marks. All add together to create balance and serenity, even though Cresting Gold is taxicab yellow! When I create abstracted landscapes, they can almost be seen as ocean waves or someone in bedclothes. I love that it doesn’t matter what you see, just as long as it speaks to you. I incorporated the edges of the canvas into the art, expanding the work by giving the viewer a different perspective from each side. I have documented my process in creating similar works on my Instagram (katewilson.artist) and Facebook (katewilson.artist.1) accounts. Please stop by to really see what went into creating this painting for you! When it ships, I will send with it the Certificate of Authenticity for your records.
