the passinig storm
“The Passing Storm” is a vibrant and evocative abstract painting that captures the dramatic beauty of a sunset after tumultuous weather. Bold strokes of fiery orange and deep red dominate the upper portion, suggesting a sun bursting through the remnants of heavy, indigo-grey storm clouds. These intense colours reflect dynamically on the water below, creating a shimmering path of molten gold and scarlet that draws the eye towards the horizon. The sea itself is rendered in rich, textured blues and turquoises, interspersed with flashes of orange and white, indicating the movement and energy of the waves still settling after the storm. The overall impression is one of powerful transition – the raw force of nature giving way to a breathtaking display of light and colour, promising calm after the chaos.
“Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.”
