Forests Of The Night [Triptych]

An original oil and acrylic painting by Scarlett Raven.

Emboldened by life as a new mother, Scarlett Raven has used bolder and brighter colours than she ever has before in this moving original painting. The artist was inspired by the birth of her first child, and the imminent arrival of her second, to create a series of paintings that explore the natural world as if through new eyes.

On creating her beautiful landscape artworks that have such fans as Orlando Bloom and Lord Jonathan Marland, Scarlet says: “The paint is thrown on, splattered and flicked. When it lands, it captures the flowers blowing in the wind. The movement must be in every layer, so when you step back you feel like the landscape is alive. It creates a whole world of magic.”

Scarlett’s incredible process also lends itself to impasto painting, invented in the 17th century by Baroque painters and later mastered by artists like Vincent Van Gogh. More recently, Scarlett has coined her own unique style where she combines the impressionistic landscapes of history with the bold black outlines of pop artists like Andy Warhol and Roy Lichenstein. The result is an expressive landscape filled dramatic emotion and movement as can be seen in this beautiful original artwork.
