Modern Muted Neutral Toned Abstract Cubist City Landscape Oil Painting

20th Century

About the Item

Modern abstract Cubist inspired city landscape painting. The work features a city rendered in neutral tones with a bright blue sky in the background. Currently hung in a clean, gold frame with an off-white matting. Stamped on the reverse with the artist's information. Dimensions Without Frame: H 10 in. x W 10 in. Artist Biography from the Artist: I grew up living with my Grandmother in Suzhou, China. Water was everywhere. There were dingy canals, stone bridges, and fields with areas of water. This was a vast difference from the stark white walls and dark roofs where people would nap on quiet afternoons. I learned what it was like seeing nature untouched, yet constantly changing. The harmony of the Earth and its wholeness verses the Earth as it has been changed by man. Life is a journey. It is constantly propelling us forward; moving us through Joy, Suffering, and Love. This is why I am moved by the images of everyday people as they live and work together. Sometimes life brings people together through Grace. Sometimes the relationship resembles an embrace, sometimes it is a Dance. In that complex dance we call life, different cultures mix and merge to form a new step of the dance. There will be times that the dance resembles a struggle or conflict, but there is still harmony in that dance as they revolve the movements. The temperate colors and grey tones of my childhood and the discoveries of more vivid beautiful hues of my adulthood linger in my paintings.
