Time and Seasons | Original Acrylic Painting, 13x20in

An original acrylic painting on canvas, 13 by 20 inches, showing three figures carrying the harvest home on their heads under a wide blue sky. It suits a hallway, a landing or a study, anywhere a wall needs warmth without noise. The paint is laid on with a knife. The ground is built up in thick ochre and rust strokes that stand off the canvas, while the sky is scraped thin enough for the weave to show through, and the second photograph is a close crop of the bare tree at the left where both are easy to see. The three figures are painted from behind with their faces turned away, which is what makes the picture read as a memory of a walk home rather than a portrait of anyone in particular. The bowls of red, green and yellow produce carry the only clean colour in the piece and they sit right at the top, so the eye climbs. Original acrylic on canvas, 13 by 20 inches, roughly 33 by 51cm. The artist signs his work LEXIS and the signature is painted into the lower right corner in dark red. There is one of this painting and no second copy. Hang it out of direct sunlight and dust it with a dry soft brush.
