SHARON KINGSTON - ORIGINAL OIL PAINTING - HERALDING A FATE
This painting was inspired by the associations we have with the color red, particularly a red sky.  My work has always held a connection to Mark Rothko's color fields in that I strive to create a depth through the layering of transparent colors.  A grounding element of horizon defines this as a landscape, but the amorphous rectangle of a sky brings the painting back into the realm of abstract.  36 x 36 inches square, this oil on canvas had painted edges.  A black floater frame is offered for an additional $100.
