Endless Nameless
In this painting, various horizons, from sunrises and sunsets to moonrises, have been depicted and layered, one on top of another. The warm glow of the landscape attracts the viewer. However, the multi-dimensional composition of the painting quickly disorients them.
In this series, Julian Rogers attempts to make an abstract picture from a realistic image by painting vaporous clouds. These vibrant and almost impossible-looking horizons soothe and excite the viewer, tapping into the familiar as well as the strange.
