"Roots" by Steven McHugh Image: Experience the essence of nature with my unique abstract interpretations of Roots", inspired by the rich, organic landscapes of Madeline Island. As a mixed-media abstract painter, I blend various materials to evoke the deep connections and intricate patterns found beneath the surface of the Apostle Islands. Each piece is a journey into the unseen world, capturing the spirit and resilience of nature through a professional painter's eye. Explore this collection on stevemchugh.art and discover how the natural beauty can transformed into compelling, expressive art. "Roots" painting is an abstract painting depicting a stand of white birch trees with their slender, white trunks extending upwards through a grassy field toward a soft, muted sky. Below the surface of the ground, the intricate network of dark tree roots is exposed, spreading outward and downward, intertwined with the earthy tones of the soil. The composition is divided horizontally, with the upper half dominated by the vertical tree trunks and green foliage in the distance, while the lower half reveals the subterranean root systems, emphasizing the hidden foundation of the trees. The painting highlights the contrast between the visible parts of the trees above ground and their elaborate root structures below, suggesting a connection between growth and unseen support systems. Mixed-media painting on canvas combines charcoal, oil paint and measures 60" x 48".
