Flux and Flow
Jason C.
Oil Painting on Canvas
-
This painting was based off of my experiences in Iceland where I saw the northern lights dancing above the capital, Reykjavik. The style of this painting is quite mixed, and contrasts between a smooth realism to paint the northern lights in the sky and a textured impressionist style to highlight the city lights below. This contrast also reflects the meaning of the title, Flux and Flow. Mother Nature provides the light show made by nature, or the flow; humanity shares in this beauty by providing the architecture and lights, or the flux. This painting represents the often forgotten harmony of mankind and Earth and the beauty of accepting both sides.

Creativity is the ability to express your emotions and experiences through any medium, such as oil painting. For me, I use my creativity by painting and try to convey my emotions and ideas about a certain topic.
