About the Item
Artist Comments
Serene, atmospheric landscape painted to convey a soothing mood. A sky of aqua-tinged blues and soft clouds hovers above velvet green fields. In the foreground, shadowed gullies carve into the field, with a diagonal line leading the eye up to the horizon. Artist Mandy Main kept details to a minimum, letting the soft light be the focus.
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.
