About the Item
This is a new acrylic and mixed media, pigments on Canvas by Paul Hughes, an artist based in Dublin Ireland.
The piece is part of the Bastard Blue Series of variations of abstract landscape using tones of Blue and indigo.
About Bastard Blue, the artist writes:
"For a long time I struggled with blue, for me it was the colour of logic, order, organisation. And while I’ve nothing against logic, it’s never been how I work. My process doesn’t do order, my paintings don’t start with a destination. Instead they’re born in the chaos of the doing, painted on the ground, they evolve, they mutate, depending on the light that day, the music I’m listening to, as I move in constant motion around them. And that wasn’t blue. And then, like the lover in a Charlotte Brontë or Jane Austen story that the protagonist first hates but then loves, blue revealed itself. I started surrounded by the wild elemental scapes of land, sea and sky, between the Beara and the Iveragh on the Atlantic-lashed coasts near Kenmare. There, looking at its blues, sometimes for days on end, I saw blue wasn’t order or calm, it was wild, seductive, raw, ungrounded. That it wasn’t one shade, it was a million. That far from being the reassuring presence of the paintbox, it was the maddest, craziest, bastard there was – that, like the sirens of Greek mythology, could change from softness to malevolence in a split second. And that’s what I wanted to paint."

The Sunset 1
By Md Tokon
Located in Greenwich, CT
Collection: Beyond The Horizon
Acrylic on canvas
Md Tokon's style has reflected the art of American Abstract Expressionists. Md Tokon spent his early years in Jhenidah and Dhaka. The physicality and immediacy of his paintings are inspired moments of deep reflection; they transport the viewer to a place neither here nor there, a timeless place beyond the horizon. Tokon's paintings deliver their message reflecting nature, emotion, and passion; with intense aesthetic expression, through surface and color. Md Tokon is in love with color and in love with the cities he grew up in. Throughout the canvas he has been deeply influenced by layer of soil, light, surface, music lyrics...
