The Gathering Storm

$500.00

The Gathering Storm is a layered, cinematic landscape rendered in brooding purples, fiery oranges, and ominous reds. At the base, an earthy pastoral scene unfolds: a herd of sheep grazes in a glowing field under a rust-toned sky, anchored by a stone building—perhaps a chapel or homestead—mirrored on either side of a central glowing fissure.

Above, the tone shifts dramatically: lightning cracks across a darkened sky, arcing violently through cloud and mountain, suggesting tension and transformation. A forested island rests quietly in the middle ground, framed by shadowy waters. The central vertical line of illumination divides the piece with near-spiritual symmetry—like a divine or cosmic rift—calling to mind mythic tales of wrath, prophecy, or revelation.

This work feels apocalyptic yet timeless—a meditation on the dual forces of chaos and sanctuary. The building and livestock suggest rootedness, tradition, and survival, while the upper realm surges with volatile energy, as though nature herself is awakening. It evokes questions about cycles—storm and calm, warning and grace, destruction and renewal.

The Gathering Storm invites viewers to consider their place within a universe that is both tender and terrifying, where the sacred and the savage exist in overlapping realms.
