Original mixed media abstract oil painting by Stevenjohn McHugh titled "Roam". Measures 19.5" x 15.25" x 1.5. Framed size is 20.25 x 16" x 2.5". Mixed media with oil stick, marker, oil, graphite, charcoal and cold wax on Arches oil paper glued on wood panel with PH balance glue. Side of wood cradle (solid wood) is varished natural. Signed on front and back. Framed is a vanished gallery frame solid wood.

 

The canvas is textured and layered with a variety of colors and shapes, communicating depth and complexity. Towards the upper portion of the painting, bold yellows and reds create a dynamic contrast, while smudges and splashes of dark brown and black add a sense of movement. In the middle of the composition, intersecting lines and curves, predominantly in black and grey hues, suggest a framework or structure amidst the chaos.

 

Near the bottom of the painting, larger shapes composed of thick, black outlines form two significant elements—one resembling an eye and the other a more ambiguous geometric form. Speckles of white paint throughout provide a sense of energy, like stars scattered across the panel. Thin, jagged lines in red slash across the space, adding to the painting's dynamic quality.

 

The bottom section has more subdued tones with patches of blue and green that soften the overall visual intensity. The background exhibits a texture that  results of layering colors and various materials, resulting in a tactile surface that enhances the painting’s depth. The art captures a sense of spontaneity and emotion, inviting viewers to interpret the confluence of forms and colors in their own way.
