About the Item

This interesting abstract has a lot in it if you look carefully. It revolves around a ghostly figure that is "Becoming." I'm intrigued by the idea that the painting is "developing" on it's own - kind of haunting! I also enjoy its multi-color palette. Explore your psyche with this one, as it's rife with psychological dimension - the longer you look at it, the more you will find! This painting has thick paint and is alive with movement from the slashing of the painting knife. This will look fantastic framed - and will bring your room alive with its rich color and texture. :: Painting :: Abstract :: This piece comes with an official certificate of authenticity signed by the artist :: Ready to Hang: Yes :: Signed: Yes :: Signature Location: front :: Canvas :: Portrait :: Original :: Framed: No

Leaving the Sea Behind, Painting, Acrylic on Canvas
By John Barney
Located in Yardley, PA
This is a continuation of my "Contemplation" series - which explores my fascination with people who are "working something out." We're all flawed people - and ultimately we are all searching for our own place of peace. Perhaps this woman's solace was the ocean...maybe she doesn't need it anymore, or perhaps more than ever. This will make a fantastic centerpiece for your living or work space. It has 1.5 inch sides painted gray - it'll blend well in almost any room. It was created with a palette knife - so texture is evident. The scraping of the knife and the blending of color give it its character. These paintings "pop" - they are not shy - explore your mind with a JB painting...
