Elwood Howell
"Juniper, " Abstract Landscape Painting

2021

About the Item

This abstract landscape painting by Elwood Howell features the artist's signature high horizon line, separating a textured, pale nearly grey foreground and a blue gradient sky. Along the horizon line, a thin blue stretch of what appears to be a small island is visible. This large-scale statement painting offers a cool, serene view of the artist's perspective of a landscape composition. The artist's signature is located at the bottom right-hand corner of the canvas, which has a painted border (giving the aesthetic of a frame - please see corner image for a close-up detail of this). It is wired and ready to hang. "The greater body of my work is primary landscapes and seascapes of an imaginary nature created in the studio," the artist says of his work. "Most works have a generally high horizon as a focal point to lure ones eye into the simple composition. The large area below the horizon down to the base of the canvas gives the viewer's eye freedom to roam the surface. This space gives the painting life much as soil nourishes the very roots of a tree. The imagery at the horizon gives a focal point and the expanse above serves as atmosphere to set the mood. This has been a format I have used for over forty years and it still intrigues me..."
