San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge is a mystical monument of beauty and energy. To me, the bridge is a pathway for the energy of the city to flow out into the natural world around it. The painting's illusion of depth and perspective creates a sense of misty light, as if the bridge is floating in the water. From a young age, I have always liked bridges. I find a special meaning in the energy emitted by bridges. I was lucky to witness the magic of the Golden Gate Bridge on a trip to California last year, which inspired me to create this painting. Special paint pouring techniques were applied to the bridge path and this area is highly textured, with dramatic contrasts and vibrant colors. The painting continues around the sides of the gallery wrapped canvas and has a semi-gloss finish. It comes wired to hang.
