About the Item
This evocative fine art painting captures the quiet allure of a backyard swimming pool at night, its glowing blue-green water illuminating the surrounding darkness. The carefully placed pool lights cast a diffused glow, reflecting off the curved surface of the water and subtly outlining the adjacent brick-edged deck. In the background, a row of vintage metal chairs sits in formation, their cool tones heightened by the artificial light, while a dark wooden fence and dense foliage enclose the intimate setting.
Rendered in contemporary realism, the artist masterfully contrasts the luminous, almost ethereal pool with the surrounding deep shadows, evoking a sense of stillness and mystery. The interplay between light and darkness, water and solid form, creates a cinematic atmosphere that invites contemplation of solitude, memory, and leisure. The meticulous brushwork and composition transform this everyday scene into a timeless meditation on quiet summer nights.
Perfect for collectors of nocturnal landscapes, realist poolside paintings, and modern figurative art, this work offers a striking balance of intimacy and detachment, making it an ideal addition to gallery exhibitions, private collections, and luxury interior spaces.
Linda Griggs' work has been included in numerous museum, gallery and university exhibitions. She has had solo shows at ADO, Christopher Stout and Carolyn J Roy Galleries in NYC and Hampden Gallery, UMass Amherst.
