Sunset Sands Original Art by Craig Foord

Mixed Media Painting
Framed: 48cm x 128cm
 
This serene abstract composition showcases Foord's masterful command of color and atmosphere. The artwork captures a desert twilight rendered in warm ambers, rich crimsons, and golden yellows, with textural elements creating a dramatic sense of arid tranquility.
 
Drawing from his fascination with natural landscapes, Foord's distinctive style is evident in his fluid handling of paint and understanding of desert phenomena. Each thoughtful stroke contributes to the painting's sense of evening stillness, creating a piece that perfectly captures the peaceful transition of sunlight across desert sands through his characteristic emphasis on color and texture.
 
About The Artist
Craig John Foord (b. 1986, Brighton) brings a unique perspective to contemporary art by combining his experience as a tree surgeon with his artistic practice. After completing his National Diploma in Art and Design at Eastbourne College, Foord developed a distinctive approach to sculpture, uniquely employing chainsaw techniques to shape resin works before refining them to elemental perfection.
 
His artistic vision spans both sculpture and painting, with recent work exploring abstract themes inspired by his fascination with outer space and planetary exploration. This dual mastery of three-dimensional and two-dimensional mediums showcases his versatility and innovative approach to contemporary art.
