About the Item

Nightlight I, Original Contemporary Abstract Impressionist Landscape Painting 48" x 60" x 2" (HxWxD) Oil on Canvas A large format canvas exudes a dark and moody composition of an abstracted landscape. Bold orange, red, and a muddy yellow provide a glowing backdrop for the deep blue and brown surrounding The impression of foliage and tree trunks are silhouetted in the foreground, creating depth and complexity within this oil painting by artist Lindsay Mueller. Artist Commentary: This painting was a challenge. I had wanted to paint dark night scenes observationally for a while, but I had not figured out how to balance the need for light inside of the studio versus the need to reduce indoor light so that my eyes could see more in the darkness. I experimented with solutions to the conflict a great deal, which led to a method of mixing paints with dimmed lighting, checking the colors with full lighting, and then turning off all but one small light to paint what I saw. This process was repeated indefinitely as I would paint as much detail as I could make out, at times blundering, but overall enjoying the challenge of painting in the dark. About the Artist: Lindsay Mueller is an artist based in Alexandria, Virginia, who works primarily in oil painting. In her paintings, Lindsay seeks to explore connection through landscape, investigating intimate and often fleeting scenes that she observes. She is interested in the shifting colors that appear in certain circumstances of light and enjoys revealing these to the viewer. Lindsay typically paints from observation, often peering out a window or painting outside. She is an alumna of the School of Visual Arts at Boston University where she studied painting. Originally from Pennsylvania, she currently resides in Alexandria, Virginia. Lindsay values using painting to explore the place that she calls home, and she looks forward to spending more time connecting to her current home through making.
