Inquire
Incantare is Latin for enchanting. The buyer who commissioned this work wanted a large painting with high visual impact, and most importantly a soothing, uplifting sensation.
I created the vision starting with the color palette and the style built off of my previous works including Svetlana’s Garden, Jardim de verão de Christine, and To Monet. The incorporation of cold wax is fundamental to achieving the muted colors, dramatic 3D textural effects and the highly desirable workability qualities.
I will be producing 3 additional works in this series each with a different color palette.
