"Smells like Cranberries"
The title is an allegory between the exciting journey and work of the rock band The Cranberries and the famous song of the rock band Nirvana, both marked a generation and both marked by tragedy, Dolores O'Riordan left us a cultural legacy rich in beautiful music with unique and peerless energy, someone who sang what she was and was what she sang, as I paint what I am and I am what I paint.
Somehow the colors appeared perfectly translating the passionate fusion between music and abstract art, sometimes an acidic energy with a touch of sweetness, like a cranberry on top of the cake.
And suddenly, when you look at it, you can smell it!
"Smells like Cranberries" is the 24th painting of the Synapses series, Luís describes them as "Synapses between heaven and earth" and they can last months or just days, they start by mentally projecting color contrasts and dimensions, until the first contact on the canvas with acrylic, it's the most calm and rational part, it's the preparation for "heaven" for the dripping sessions, for abstract expressionism, everything culminating in emotive, intense, vibrant, unique and passionate paintings that will bring good energies to any room.
Pure lyric abstractionist painting, extremely beautiful and made by me Luís Bastos, one of a kind, original and genuine.
It'll ship on a wooden crate, ready to hang, gallery wrapped, stretched on a supported wooden frame, with hooks on the back. Luís signs his paintings on the back but he can sign them also on the front by request. Authenticity certificate included. Shipping in 10 days.
