Description

 Abstract Figures in Landscape Oil Painting #36

Abstract Figures in Landscape #36 is an original two-canvas oil painting by Laurie Rubell, combining abstract expression with subtle figurative forms.

The two canvases are designed to hang together as one unified composition, although they may also be displayed separately. I paint across both canvases, allowing color, line, and space to move from one panel to the other while exploring the edges within and beyond each canvas.

I work directly on the canvas without preliminary sketches, allowing the painting to develop and change as I work. This piece began with washes of deep blue oil paint across the blank canvases. From there, layers of color, drips, gestures, and thousands of brushstrokes gradually formed the composition.

Abstract figures appear to drift and merge above the clouds, creating a sense of movement and suspended time within the landscape.

The painting took more than two months to complete. I used more than 50 different styles of artist brushes and many tubes of oil paint to build its layered surfaces, movement, and depth.

I hand-stretch my canvases over wood frames rather than working on store-bought canvas. With every brushstroke, I consider beginnings and endings and the moment that exists between them.

Abstract Figures in Landscape #36 is a one-of-a-kind original oil painting. I do not create prints, copies, or limited editions of my paintings.
