12x12x1" Mixed Media on Wood Panel
14.5x14.5x2" Wood Shadow Frame (Sealed Natural)

This is an abstract mixed media painting housed in a simple natural wood frame. It has a richly textured surface using heavy body acrylics, palette knife work, and texture
Composition & Color
The canvas is divided into two dominant zones:
Upper portion — A luminous field of yellow-green (chartreuse) and pale sky blue, with heavily worked, impasto texture suggesting layered applications of paint. The surface has visible scraping, dragging, and buildup that creates depth and visual interest.
Lower portion — A sweeping deep black mass cuts diagonally across the lower half, bold and weighty, anchoring the composition with a sense of gravity or shadow.
Smaller Elements
Scattered across the lighter upper field are several small abstract marks and shapes:
An oval with dotted stripes (left of center) — almost seed or pod-like
Two small white/striped fragments nearby
A small dark dot and two larger black organic shapes (upper right) — suggesting stones, figures, or punctuation marks
A thin vertical blue line runs down through the center, subtly dividing the composition.
Mood & Interpretation
The work evokes a landscape feel — perhaps a hillside, shoreline, or aerial view — without being explicitly representational. The contrast between the airy lightness above and the dense darkness below creates a strong sense of tension and balance.
