Element vs Man 6 x 6 Acrylic Urban Landscape by Denver Artist John K. Harrell






$125.00 + $10.00 S/H

This is another loose interpretation of an urban composition in Denver Colorado. Using both the hard edges of the street car and the detail of the figure to off set the looseness of the back ground make for an electric painting.

Floating Tranquility 5 x 7 Acrylic water Landcape with boats

I have lived in a land locked city my whole life. So, when I get the chance to visit a city where there are views of the ocean and everything that comes with them, I'm totally captivated. This day the water was like glass and the boats were patiently waiting for their next adventure. It was a moving but, very tranquil
moment. I hope I've captured their story here on the canvas.

Fuscia 7 x 5 Acrylic Urban Landscape Painting with Figure

 
SOLD


I never know when I sit down to paint what I'm going to be inspired by that day. In this case it was the urban environment but more so the figure waiting to cross the street. Her clothing and umbrella dominated the composition making the city take a back seat. I quite like that.
