Lantern Eye: Indigo Vortex Abstract

Contemporary Abstract & Mixed Media · horizontal

A glowing white teardrop shape sits at the center of dark navy and violet rings, which makes the image look like an eye or whirlpool. Smooth, glassy swirls of pale blue and white curve around it on the left. The right side is covered in small bubbles and beaded highlights, and a dark streak reaches out from the central ring. Pink, blue, and gold flecks of color show along the edges.

Someone wants this piece over ten other blue abstracts because it has a focal point most blue abstracts lack: a glowing white teardrop ringed by near-black navy and violet bands, so it reads as an eye or a whirlpool without being either. The eye is pulled to the bright center, then drifts right into a field of tiny bubbles and beaded highlights, with pink, blue and gold flecks at the edges. It is dark, cool and a little watchful, and it holds attention in a way a plain colour field does not. Liking it for the look alone is reason enough.
