“Fire in the Hole” Original Painting

About the Item

A striking and atmospheric original oil painting on board by artist G. Milliken, titled “Fire in the Hole.” This dynamic work captures the raw power and visual drama of a controlled burn or underground fire, rendered with rich impasto texture, bold palette knife work, and energetic brushstrokes. Billowing clouds of smoke and vibrant red embers evoke a visceral sense of movement and transformation. The painting’s smoky palette—ranging from ash white and steel grey to deep, earthy browns—contrasts with flashes of bright crimson and gold, lending the piece both tension and beauty. Executed on board rather than canvas, the painting’s surface adds a further element of density and tactile presence. Signed on the reverse, this evocative work is presented in its original black-painted wooden frame, showing minor wear consistent with age and adding to the work’s vintage character. A captivating statement piece that would suit collectors of contemporary realism, abstracted landscapes, or expressive environmental art.
