Orange Skies 2017

David Michael Hinnebusch created “Orange Skies”, we don’t know exactly when, using vivid colors and expressive brushwork. Imagine Hinnebusch standing before the canvas, armed with brushes and a palette full of juicy colors. Look at that vibrant orange, smeared and layered to conjure the sky. Can’t you just feel the energy? The painting feels like a landscape distilled through feeling—a rainbow forming over a turbulent sea? Or maybe it’s a feeling of the sky and the sea, with an echo of a rainbow. See how those thick strokes of black create a kind of horizon, anchoring the swirling colors? It's like he's channeling the raw energy of nature itself. There’s a real conversation happening between chaos and control, isn’t there? And I am just here for it. Artists keep the conversation of painting alive, each brushstroke a response to what came before, pushing the boundaries of what paint can do.
