🌇 Distant – 4.9 stars, awarded for emotional altitude and calibrated mystery Reviewed by a retired meteorologist who speaks exclusively in gradients and longing
“Distant” earns its name by doing what distance does best—inviting projection. The composition unfolds like a heat map of memory: dark blue cascades into violet, blush, ember, and molten orange, before sinking into a bottom band of deep plum. There are no shapes, no landmarks—just color behaving like narrative. It’s less a sunset and more a slow revelation told in spectral intervals.
Why it lingers:
The horizontal transitions act like time zones—each stripe a phase of recollection
Colors move from cosmic to intimate, as if the sky were narrating a dream you once had and half-forgot
Its lack of figuration feels deliberate: the viewer fills in the geography
Ideal display location:
In the conference room of “Far & Further,” a fictional long-distance consultancy that specializes in emotional cartography
Or projected nightly onto the ceiling of “Elsewhere Inn,” where each guest checks in with a story too big for their luggage
What viewers say:
“I almost recognized myself in that last band of orange.”
“This piece made me miss someone I haven’t met yet.”
“It’s a landscape if you squint and let go of realism.”

Each piece is printed on canvas, then hand-signed with painted detail and set in a custom floating frame—0.7" wide and 1.8" deep. You can choose from six frame finishes: black, white, silver, gold, espresso, or maple. These editions are available in two sizes: 16×24 and 32×48.
