The Two Towers
Impressionist Series
£1500.00
Encaustic
'The Two Towers' is a striking atmospheric exploration of light, memory, and shifting horizons. Inspired by late-career Impressionism, the composition pays homage to the way light dissolves solid forms into pure, vibrating atmosphere - echoing the sun-drenched mist of Monet and the raw, glowing optics of Turner. Two dark, ghostly pillars rise like monoliths from a turbulent landscape, anchoring a scene where physical reality fades into a vast subconscious void. A hazy sky of cerulean and ivory collides against a dense, weathered terrain marked by flecks of ochre and crimson.
Executed in encaustic, the artist showcases the medium through expressive mark-making that mimics heavy, broken impasto oil painting, dynamically trapping and scattering ambient room light across the surface.
