AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A gorgeous piece of art.
In this whimsical tableau, a fantastical narrative unfolds with echoes of steampunk's quirky anachronisms and a nod to the vibrancy of surrealism. The bustling composition features a trio of characters, perched upon a delightfully anachronistic contraption, echoing Jules Verne's adventurous spirit. The palette is an exuberant medley of corals, cerulean blues, and sunflower yellows that evokes a festive, carnival-like atmosphere.
Towering hot air balloons and a solitary lighthouse punctuate the airy expanse, imbuing the scene with a sense of buoyant escapade. The artist employs a playful juxtaposition of mechanical precision and organic whimsy, allowing the viewer to meander through this surreal seaside romp. This painting is a joyful declaration, inviting us to lose ourselves in a world where imagination reigns supreme.
Artur Płachta - a cracovian painter, sculptor and graphic designer born in 1971. A diploma in sculpture clearly influenced his painting style. For many years he managed a professional art studio in Kraków. Winner of many painting reviews and awards from the Museum of Contemporary Art in Warsaw and the prestigious magazine Exit. He took part in many exhibitions in Germany, Austria, France and Romania.
Hundreds of paintings and sculptures are in collections all over the world, including USA, New Zealand and even Afghanistan also in all European countries. Currently inspired by ceramic art in a funny way trying to tell about human passions. Behind the fairy-tale decorations are hidden the deepest human passions and desires. Canvas stretched on wooden frame. Colors of the painting may slightly differ from photos due to screen settings.
Comes with a certificate of authenticity. Will be carefully packed in bubble wrap and cardboard. Shipping with tracking number.
