Astral Rain

Ethereal color meets textural complexity in this captivating mixed-media exploration of the ephemeral and the enduring. Light blue acrylic layers form a serene, celestial backdrop with soft gradients evoking atmospheric beauty. Emerging from above, a shimmering cloud-like formation of silver and copper leaf adds an otherworldly glow. Thin aluminum wires, painted in varying blues and whites, descend like rain or light, creating movement and direction. The linear precision of the wires contrasts with the organic metal leaf and fluid painted background, resulting in a visually arresting and conceptually intriguing composition.
