The artist I chose is Michel Keck. After doing a quick image search on Bing, this particular piece immediately stood out among the results. This oil on canvas is, no doubt, non-objective, but it brings to my mind a terrestrial scene. The choice of colors are dominantly earthy; the darker khaki tones at the bottom contrasted with the upper half of the canvas reminds me of a desolate landscape of some sort. The mix of reds, blues, and whites in the center are reminiscent of a city or a peninsula jutting out upon the scene. The composition balances serenity and bleakness really well.
