Expressionist Oil on Canvas - Signed C Bravo

Description
This striking abstract mixed-media painting signed C. Bravo combines bold geometric structure with lyrical emotion. Vertical black and white bars create a sense of rhythm and confinement, while vivid accents of violet, crimson, and blue energize the composition. Above, a faintly drawn bird soars within a pale sky, accompanied by the handwritten phrase, “dear god, make me a bird so I can fly far far away.” The integration of text, texture, and layered pigment evokes longing and transcendence. The artist’s technique reveals a balance between disciplined design and expressive freedom, resulting in a deeply atmospheric composition that bridges abstraction and narrative. Its tactile surface and visual poetry make it a compelling focal point in any refined contemporary setting.
