Aura Nights Original Art by Craig Foord
Mixed Media Painting
Framed: 57cm x 77cm
This ethereal abstract seascape showcases Foord's masterful command of light and atmosphere. The artwork captures a mystical aurora rendered in deep blues, emerald greens, and touches of luminous gold, with celestial light dancing across a dramatic night sky above a tranquil ocean below.
Drawing from his fascination with outer space and exploration, Foord's distinctive style is evident in his fluid handling of paint and understanding of cosmic phenomena. Each dynamic stroke contributes to the painting's sense of nocturnal magic, creating a piece that perfectly captures the otherworldly beauty of the northern lights through his characteristic emphasis on color and atmosphere.
About The Artist
Craig John Foord (b. 1986, Brighton) brings a unique perspective to contemporary art by combining his experience as a tree surgeon with his artistic practice. After completing his National Diploma in Art and Design at Eastbourne College, Foord developed a distinctive approach to sculpture, uniquely employing chainsaw techniques to shape resin works before refining them to elemental perfection.
His artistic vision spans both sculpture and painting, with recent work exploring abstract themes inspired by his fascination with outer space and planetary exploration. This dual mastery of three-dimensional and two-dimensional mediums showcases his versatility and innovative approach to contemporary art.
