The artwork titled “Horizon II” is a creation by the artist John Miller, who is associated with the art movement of Contemporary Realism. This piece falls under the genre of cloudscape, an artistic depiction of cloud formations.
The artwork prominently features a horizon where the sky and land (or sea) meet in an almost seamless gradient. Dominated by deep, soothing shades of blue, the horizon is punctuated by a vibrant line composed of warm colors, such as orange, yellow, and red, encapsulating the moment of a serene and resplendent sunset or sunrise. The blend of colors from bold to soft creates a mesmerizing transition, drawing viewers into the peaceful and awe-inspiring natural beauty inherent in cloudscapes. The use of light, color, and minimalistic composition evokes an ethereal sense of calm and expansiveness, typical of Miller’s work within Contemporary Realism.
