Tall Saint
Step into the captivating world of 'Tall Saint', an original painting by the gifted Stephen Ford. Framed in a sophisticated grey with silver accents, this piece measures 31 x 39 inches and stands as a testament to Ford's innovative approach to animal portraiture.
At first glance, 'Tall Saint' presents an artistic rendering of a bear, but closer inspection reveals so much more. Utilising fractured geometric shapes and an array of enchanting colours, Ford crafts a mosaic that breathes life into this majestic creature. Rich earthy tones blend seamlessly with whispers of lavenders and soft greys, creating a texture and depth that is both abstract and mesmerizingly real. The crisp grey background serves not only to contrast but also to elevate the bear's form, making it the undeniable focal point of the composition.
Stephen Ford’s work dives deep into our complex relationship with animals, using his art as a mirror reflecting our inner selves and our place within the natural world. With around twenty different spray paint colours for each portrait complemented by oil paint glazes, every layer tells its own story. His method—employing hands, paper towels, blades or rulers—infuses each stroke with intentionality and passion.
'Tall Saint' is more than just an artwork; it’s an emotive reverie that encapsulates elation intertwined with darker truths about humanity’s role in relation to animals and our environment. This piece promises not only to be a striking addition to any collection but also invites viewers on a reflective journey through its vivid portrayal of wildlife.
Owning this piece means embracing Stephen Ford's vision—a blend of colour surrounding deeper contemplations—making it perfect for those who seek art that moves beyond aesthetic pleasure towards stirring meaningful conversation.
