$75.00
Size

This minimalist wall poster with a modern abstraction of mountains, palm trees and a graphic landscape with buildings, a coastal road and a bridge by the sea is a modern Mediterranean art print created using collage and painting on canvas, paper and decoupage for an abstraction of Italian scenery and South of France coastal landscapes. The graphic landscape travel print features bold, graphic shapes in neutral, contrasting colours representing small towns and villages in this Mediterranean inspired artwork.

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

Inspirations

My inspiration for this canvas art series were beautiful Mediterranean landscapes seen from the sea along the coastlines on the French and Italian Rivieras, where the snowy Alps rise up majestically over the sea, and the shorelines are dotted with small 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 Mediterranean landscape art print.
