Arizona 1
This A3-sized alcohol ink painting is a bold and atmospheric evocation of a desert landscape at dusk. The sky blazes with layered hues of ruby, rose, and magenta, blending in broad, fluid bands that radiate the heat and drama of a desert sunset.
Beneath this vivid sky, a jagged horizon line separates the warmth above from a cooler, more mysterious terrain below. Deep blues and inky blacks dominate the foreground, pooling like shadowed canyon walls or the abstracted echo of a dry riverbed under moonlight. The ink drips and bleeds vertically, creating a dynamic tension that mirrors the shifting desert terrain.
To the left, three slender copper leaf trees rise against the red sky—tall and elegant like saguaro cacti or stylised sentinels. Their metallic shimmer catches the light, offering a striking contrast to the fluidity of the inks around them and anchoring the scene with both warmth and structure.
The composition evokes the raw beauty and surreal contrasts of the Arizona desert—where light and shadow collide, and the land burns with colour and ancient stillness.
