Title: Dancing in the Heat

Original Artwork – Original painting size: 108 x 82cm

Acrylic on canvas – Abstract

I love this bold and expressive abstract painting characterised by explosive energy and dynamic composition. The colour palette is dominated by warm earthy tones—ochres, burnt sienna, rust, and tan—creating a fiery, sunset-like backdrop.

At the center, jagged, branching forms in black, red, white, and umber erupt outward, resembling limbs, lightning, or even neural pathways. These central shapes are highly textured and layered with thick, impasto strokes. Across the canvas, chaotic splatters and drips of white, and dark red, add motion and rhythm, giving the work a sense of spontaneity, dancing (like no one is watching) and emotional intensity.

I hope this painting makes you feel alive.

Artist Bio:
I live in the beautiful village of Carsington in Derbyshire.

My work focuses on creating atmospheric and textured landscapes, but I also create large abstract art pieces.

I am inspired by my surroundings and the fauna and flora of my local reservoir.

My abstract pieces are created with instinct and emotion, always focusing on the drama and intrigue a piece can portray.  Each piece is lovingly crafted, taking care to ensure the mood of a piece is captured through the use of harmonious and contrasting colours.
