BURNT

“Burnt” is a vibrant exploration of colour and texture, evoking a sense of warmth and dynamic movement. The painting’s rich orange hues dominate the composition, with extra sizeable abstract pallet knife shapes that seem to shift and overlap, giving the piece a sense of depth and energy. The artist, Troy Smith, uses a play of light and shadow within the layered rectangles, creating a glowing effect reminiscent of fire or embers.

The bold, saturated colour invites the viewer to experience intense visual heat, while the soft transitions between forms offer moments of calm within the chaos. “Burnt” exemplifies Smith’s ability to balance spontaneity with structure, turning a simple palette into a powerful statement. This contemporary abstract piece is a testament to the artist’s mastery of acrylics and his commitment to pushing the boundaries of abstraction.
