Original mixed media abstract oil painting by Stevenjohn McHugh titled "Impulsive". Measures 15.25" x 19.25" x 1.5. Framed size is 16 x 20.25" 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.

"Self Evident" features a vibrant array of colors with dominant tones of yellow, blue, and green, layered to create depth and texture. A prominent yellow section at the top left transitions into a blended green and blue area towards the bottom. Throughout the composition, there are sporadic accents of red and strokes of dark color that resemble calligraphic marks. The use of color gradation, overlay, and scraping techniques results in a richly textured surface that invites the viewer to interpret the visual elements subjectively. The painting is full of movement, suggesting an energetic and dynamic interplay between the colors and forms.
