Overview
Custom Sized River Landscape for Hospital Lobby.
Goals
CONCEPT In the shallow flow of the river depicted in the artwork, one can both touch the earth and feel the sky all at once. Centering and grounding viewers with the abstract intersection of light reflections descending vertically, crossed by horizontal flow of the river itself.
A community hospital on the river feels soothed by the flow of healing earth colors. Families and patients in the midst of health crisis are comforted and grounded by earth tone palette of the river, that reflects uplifting nuances of blue skies.
Process
Client selected artwork from extensive river themed painting in existing portfolio.
Create custom sized canvas giclee with hand embellished palette knife oil paint.
