Acrylic on canvas, 36 x 36 inches “The painting captures the tranquil essence of nature through a harmonious blend of abstract shapes and realistic tree imagery. Soft, luminous shades of blue, green, and amber imbue the scene with a peaceful mood, inviting viewers to reconnect with the serenity of the natural world. The artist’s innovative fusion of realism and abstraction creates a fresh perspective, highlighting the delicate beauty and emotional depth found in landscapes. This piece evokes a sense of calm and wonder, celebrating nature’s timeless allure.” Loretta Kaltenhauser is an established, contemporary, award-winning Canadian artist. She creates works that are either abstract or have landscape elements to them. Using various brushes and palette knives, Loretta layers, subtracts, and manipulates acrylic paint on canvas to synthesize an intricate and distinct tableau. Colours and shapes take on an energy of their own, and each subsequent layer of texture and colour she adds reinterprets her thoughts and emotions. Loretta Kaltenhauser's works can be found in private collections in Canada, the United States, and the U.K.
