Flores de Luna or Moon-Flowers Acrylic

Flores de Luna is original acrylic, luminous painting of the Moon. Viewing the artwork from different angles, you'll see candescent and changing image.

I sketched and photographed a similar scene in early spring during a walk with my Border Collie companion, Harvey. The sky was still relatively bright, but the Moon was already shining upon us while the new flowers on the tree were rejoicing in the early days of the year.

The painting does have many aspects. It is versatile because, in a different light, you'll see a somewhat different image. For example, the frontal view shows a whitish moon which can have a silverish shimmer or even - seen from the side - goes into a slight purplish glow.

You would say the same about the sky, which materializes between light and darker blue shades. Still, viewing the painting from different angles, you'll see it in lustrous bluish-silver, which sometimes changes into light purplish, shiny blue.

Through its luminosity, you can describe this painting as opalescent.
The high-quality canvas is professionally stretched medium-grain linen. I primed the canvas five times, painted it with high-quality, professional-grade acrylics and varnished it three times to protect the artwork.

The sides are painted white, and you can display the artwork without any frame. Finally, it is ready to hang on a sawtooth hanger fixed to the stretcher bars.

Materials: primed with five coats of gesso primer, linen canvas, gallery-wrapped around the stretcher bars, professional-grade acrylic paints, three coats of gloss, high-quality varnish
Size: 61 x 46 x 1.9 cm
Style: realism
The artwork is not framed but ready to hang (description, see above).
