About this painting.
Inspiration & Concept
From my studio in Scotland, I created Inception Abstract as a visual exploration of beginnings - the moment when energy, colour and form converge to “birth” a feeling. Working in an abstract-impressionistic style allows me to bypass literal representation and instead evoke a mood, a vibration that resonates on a deeper level.
I wanted the viewer to sense the genesis of thought and movement: brushstrokes that spiral or radiate, colour fields that push against one another, textures that hint at both calm and kinetic energy. The title “Inception” reflects this starting-point: the latent potential before anything fully “becomes”.
Technique & Materials
– The painting was executed on deep-edge canvas (3.8 cm depth) to allow the work to stand free from the wall and interact with ambient light and space.
– I layered acrylic (and possibly mixed media) with both broad sweeping movements and more intimate marks, letting the process remain partially intuitive rather than fully planned.
– Colour palette: I chose shades that contrast cooler and warmer tones - perhaps soft grays or muted blues meeting warmer ochres or rich siennas - to create both harmony and tension. The texture is deliberately varied: some areas smooth and quiet, others active and gestural.
– The final result is signed, sealed and ready for display as an original work of art, reflecting my ongoing practice as a Scottish artist specialising in expressive landscape and abstract work.
Mood & Experience in the Space
When you hang Inception Abstract in a room, the piece becomes a focal point that invites contemplation. It doesn’t simply decorate a wall - it engages with the light, the environment, and your state of mind. Over time, you may notice different details: subtle textures, shifts in shade as the day progresses, new sensations emerging depending on your vantage point.
It’s intended to be dynamic and alive: to evolve visually in your space rather than remain static. The abstract nature means each viewer can enter their own story - what it begins for them may differ: perhaps a fresh chapter, a new direction, or simply a quiet moment of reflection.
