Where the Sky Splits

This is an original abstract acrylic painting, hand-painted in my home studio here in Rugby, Warwickshire. Loose forms in blue, charcoal and burnt orange gather at the corners and edges of the canvas, leaving a wide, luminous fracture of pale cream and blue running diagonally through the centre; a sky pulled apart by the storm.

The Story

Where the Sky Splits is part of The Sublime Horizon, a collection inspired by the fleeting beauty of a distant thunderstorm I watched roll across the horizon from my garden. From a place of safety, the storm transformed the sky into a luminous expanse of orange, immense natural power becoming unexpectedly serene. This piece captures the moment the clouds start to rumble, light cutting a path through the darker mass gathered above; where violence disrupts what was once calm. Painted with bold colour, expressive brushwork and richly textured impasto, it explores the paradox at the heart of the sublime: the coexistence of awe and tranquillity, chaos and beauty.

The diagonal channel of light gives this work drama and pulls your eye straight through the canvas rather than around it. A strong focal point for a room that needs a little energy. Every brushstroke is hand-applied, so no print can replicate it.

I package and ship each piece carefully from the UK. Each painting is shipped within 2 weeks of the purchase date.

If you have any questions about this piece, or would like to see how it might look in your space, please get in touch — I'd love to hear from you.
