Ice Age
18 × 24. Acrylic on canvas panel. Unframed
This painting embraces a fluid and organic abstract style. The canvas is dominated by a series of vertical, wave-like forms that cascade across the surface, creating a sense of rhythmic movement. The colour palette is more restrained than in some of the earlier paintings, focusing primarily on deep blues, ranging from rich navy to lighter turquoise, contrasted with vibrant oranges and hints of black, gray, and muted browns. The blues dominate the composition, giving the painting a cool, almost aquatic feel, while the oranges provide a warm counterpoint, adding energy and contrast.
The overall mood of the painting is dynamic yet somewhat contemplative, with the flowing forms and cool blues evoking a sense of water, wind, or natural forces in motion, while the oranges suggest heat, light, or energy breaking through. The composition feels more open and less cluttered than the previous paintings, with the verticality of the forms creating a sense of upward or downward motion, depending on the viewer’s perspective. It’s a piece that balances abstraction with a hint of natural imagery, possibly evoking a landscape of mountains, waves, or even a stylized representation of a forest fire against a stormy sky. The painting invites the viewer to feel the push and pull of opposing forces—cool and warm, fluid and structured—within its rhythmic, flowing composition.
