Ember Petal, Melting Orange and Violet Abstract

Contemporary Abstract & Mixed Media · horizontal

A horizontal abstract of melting, swirling bands of orange, yellow, red and violet. A glossy red petal-like shape sits just left of center, edged with thin pale aqua highlights. The left side is warm with oranges and yellows, while the center and right open into a cool lavender-blue field crossed by curling orange ribbons. Fine ripple lines run through every color area and give the surface a smooth, liquid look.

A viewer wants this piece for its single glowing red petal-like form, which sits against a sharp warm-to-cool split of burnt orange and periwinkle violet. The bands of color melt into one another like liquid, and fine ripple lines run through every color field. Most colorful abstracts are either all swirl or all palette. This one has a clear focal point, a glossy wet-looking light, and a flower suggestion that is never spelled out. Pure visual attraction is reason enough to choose it.
