Snowy Alps By The Med, Part 2: Canvas Print

$156.00
Size

This large abstract wall art is a print on canvas with a modern abstraction of mountains, palm trees and a graphic landscape of a bridge and buildings by the sea. It is a Mediterranean scenery wall art collage created using landscape painting on canvas, drawing, painting and paper cutouts to depict Italian scenery and South of France coastal landscapes. The graphic landscape art print has bold, graphic shapes in neutral contrasting colours representing small towns and villages.

The snow-capped French and Italian Alps mountains serve as a backdrop to this monochrome, minimalist wall art in black, white and neutral beige colours, evoking balmy Mediterranean breezes, tall palm trees swaying in the wind, overlooking the Mediterranean sea. This abstract art print is part of a two piece canvas art series meant to bring beautiful travel destination art to your wall decor, and a dose of wanderlust and modern Mediterranean design to your office space, living room, bedroom or hallway art. 

Inspirations

My inspiration for this canvas art series were landscapes seen from the sea along the Mediterranean coastlines on the French and Italian Rivieras, where the snowy Alps rise up magestically over the sea, and the shorelines are dotted with small and large towns, villas, train tunnels and suspended coastal roads.

In every season, these beautiful landscapes are dotted with tall swaying palm trees that vertically break up the horizontal juxtaposition of rolling mountain peaks and horizontal lines of shorelines of the seashores.

I wanted to create a modern, monochrome and minimalist abstraction of these Mediterranean landscapes, simplifying the scenery down to the most graphic and essential elements, creating a modern artistic interpretation of the beauty and sublime scale of this Mediterranean region.

Creative Process

I created the original two piece canvas landscape art using canvas and paint for the background colour of the sky, sea, and the snowy mountains. On a separate art support, I hand painted the palm trees, bridge and graphic buidlings using black paint on large art paper.

I subsequently used a decoupage technique, creating cutouts of the black and white palm trees and layering shapes on top of each other to create the rectangular buildings, windows and bridge. I glued the graphic paper shapes onto the canvas, creating a layered mixed media collage. As a final step, I varnished the canvas artwork to enhance and preserve the colours, and photographed the final diptych before digitally transferring and editing the final artwork, enhancing the colours, contrasts and highlights to ensure a sharp, premium quality art print on canvas.
