Into The Light Original Art by Craig Foord

Mixed Media Painting
Framed: 72cm x 72cm
 
This dramatic abstract landscape showcases Foord's masterful command of light and atmosphere. The artwork captures an explosive celestial moment rendered in rich golds and deep crimsons, with ethereal beams of light breaking through turbulent clouds to illuminate the rolling terrain below.
 
Drawing from his fascination with outer space and exploration, Foord's distinctive style is evident in his bold handling of paint and understanding of natural phenomena. Each dynamic stroke contributes to the painting's sense of revelation and emergence, creating a piece that perfectly captures the transformative power of light through his characteristic emphasis on contrast and luminosity.
 
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.
