Country Garden

Antonio del Moral’s Country Garden, painted in 1975 with acrylics, captures the vibrant beauty of a countryside garden in full bloom. The painting’s central focus is a colorful assortment of flowers, including daisies, sunflowers, and wildflowers, arranged in a lively composition that draws the viewer in. In the background of the painting, a charming country barn can be seen, nestled among the trees and fields. The barn’s red roof stands out against the natural greenery, adding a touch of warmth and character to the scene. Del Moral’s use of acrylics creates a sense of texture and depth in the painting, with each flower and blade of grass appearing almost tangible. The vibrant colors of the flowers are heightened by the use of acrylics, making them appear almost luminescent in the natural light of the garden. The painting’s composition is balanced, with the flowers and the barn occupying equal space on the canvas. The use of light and shadow adds depth and dimension to the painting, making it feel almost three-dimensional. Overall, Antonio del Moral’s Country Garden is a beautiful and lively work of art, capturing the essence of a countryside garden in full bloom. The painting’s use of color, texture, and composition creates a sense of joy and vitality that is sure to brighten any space in which it is displayed. Country Garden was an award-winning painting showcased at the Torpedo Factory in Old Town Alexandria, Virginia during a juried exhibition.
