About Marinha com Sol e Palmeiras

The artwork titled “Marinha com Sol e Palmeiras,” created by Aldemir Martins in 2003, is a landscape painting that falls within the Naive Art movement, also known as Primitivism.

The painting portrays a simplistic and vibrant scene that embodies characteristics of Naive Art with its directness and child-like perspective. The artwork features a bold red sun dominating the upper section of the canvas, set against a vivid blue sky with wisps of white, suggesting clouds. Below the sun, a horizontal swathe of darker blue represents the sea, while a layer of lush green suggests the presence of land or vegetation. The lower part of the image is occupied by a sandy yellow expanse that might represent a beach or desert, dotted with small red and black elements that may be plants or rocks. In the foreground, there are two prominent palm trees with elongated, rough-textured trunks and leafy, arching fronds, reaching upwards into the sky. The artist’s signature is visible on the bottom right. The use of primary colors and the bold outlines of shapes illustrate the simplicity and straightforwardness typical of Naive Art, inviting viewers to engage with the artwork through an intuitive and unpretentious lens.
