About the Item
Artist Comments
Artist Mandy Main presents an uplifting, light-filled landscape of vast green fields and limitless skies. The breathtaking vista combines old-world realism with a modern aesthetic. Clouds sweep dramatically across a blue sky. Alternating highlights and deep shadows sweep majestically over the serene terrain below. Exaggerated atmospheric perspective pulls the viewer deep into the horizon of the painting and then upward into the expansive heavens.
