Arizona 3

A3  original alcohol ink artwork with copper leaf  on Yupo paper
 
Arizona is a bold and luminous tribute to the sun-scorched landscapes of the American Southwest. Rich desert tones — ochre, sienna, terracotta, and sun-bleached ivory — ripple across the Yupo paper in flowing, organic forms. The fluidity of alcohol ink brings a sense of motion to the stillness, like heatwaves rising off canyon walls or wind brushing over sun-baked plains.
Hints of mineral pinks and dusty golds shimmer through the composition, evoking layers of sediment and time. The glossy surface enhances the saturation of each hue, capturing the intense radiance of a place where light and shadow meet in sharp contrast.
Both elemental and abstract, Arizona pulses with the quiet strength of earth, sun, and open space — a painting that radiates warmth and grounded energy.
