Carefully approach "Refelctions of a Forest Fire", as this 20x16-inch is a fluid-art acrylic painting depicting the colors (beautiful and horrific) of the so many forest fires buring across North America in the summer of 2023.
Please note that the actual colors of the painting may vary slightly from the digital image due to lighting conditions.
Refelctions of a Forest Fire
This piece was inspired by the Mother Nature's unrelenting assault on forests across the continent. It blends the browns and greens of the woodlands with the reds and yellows that tore across them during the dry months. These colors shone through the blacks and greys which choked out the sun's light.
This piece can be haunting as you imagine the sheer heat and suffocating smoke.
A gloss varnish has been applied to protect the piece and further accentuate the play of light and shadow, bringing life to the fire dancing in the reflections on the black water puddling on the forest floor.
This is a perfect piece for those who love the colors of changing leaves in the Fall, or the fearsome force of fire. It is a testiment to nature's awesome yet terrifying power.
