Somewhere over the Rainbow’

Somewhere over the Rainbow is a painting of beautiful colours of the petals in the sky falling onto the landscape creating a rainbow of petals. Fireworks of petals in the sky like musical notes dancing to their own song against the beautiful light blue sky. Hope with this work it makes the viewer feel very peaceful and tranquil. I tried to create so much depth in the painting and filling the Sky with petals like shooting stars . The painting is painted with a pallet knife in thick acrylic paint with so much texture that creates a three dimensional feeling to the painting . The painting does not come with an external frame. The painting is signed and dated 2023 at the back and comes with a certificate of Authenticity.
