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.


About the Artist
Mandy Main is an art historian and landscape painter based in the Southern California desert. She has long been passionate about 19th Century American landscape paintings, which has been influential in her artistic practice. Mandy works in series, generally three paintings at a time. Her process begins with a vision of a place she has been, but she takes creative liberties with the aesthetic details. The artist is captivated by light and shadow, and strives to instill her work with moody drama through the representation of these elements. Using layers of paint and glazes, Mandy achieves mesmerizing atmospheric depth, encouraging the viewer to gaze and be still.
