Moonlight for Georgia O'Keeffe, 2015, oil on cradled wood panel 36" x 36"

"Moonlight for Georgia O’Keeffe" is a contemplative piece from the Horizon Series, marrying the expansive calm of Transcendentalist landscape painting with the emotive energy of Abstract Expressionism. This 2015 oil on cradled wood panel, with dimensions of 36" x 36", pays homage to O'Keeffe's legacy through its evocative use of light and texture, which gently nods to her luminous portrayals of the American landscape.

This painting embodies a personal synthesis of the artist's architectural background and profound respect for historical art movements. The sculptural application of paint in restrained color fields encapsulates the shifting horizons, while the layered gestures reference the rich tradition of expressive mark-making.

Adhering to the sacred geometry of the golden rectangle at its base, the composition reflects a harmonious balance that is both aesthetically modern and rooted in ancient practice. The square format serves to anchor the work firmly in the present while reaching back through art history and tradition. The horizon, a constant yet ever-changing boundary, is examined and reinterpreted, presenting the viewer with a meditative space that is at once historical, personal, and universal.
