untitled 2014 oil paint on panel

This untitled 8" x 8" piece from 2014, an oil painting on panel, is an intimate part of the Horizon Series. The artist's choice to leave this work untitled invites viewers to imbue it with their own interpretations, fostering a personal connection with the artwork.

The texture and palette reflect a horizon where the cool, tranquil blue of water meets the complex, layered grays of the sky. Despite its smaller scale, the painting's tactile surface carries the depth and intricacy seen in larger works. The paint is applied in a way that creates a physical landscape of its own, with peaks and valleys that play with light and shadow.

This piece continues the series' exploration of the golden rectangle's sacred geometry, the interplay between sky and water, and the harmony within the square format—a modern interpretation of ancient and classical art forms. The viewer is presented with a horizon that could be perceived as distant and expansive or as a close-up, emphasizing the abstract beauty found in natural forms.
