Front Range - Canvas Print

"Front Range" Canvas Print.  Available in 1 size: 24" X 30" Framed

Front Range presents a carefully calibrated interplay between geometric abstraction and photographic realism, serving as an abstracted depiction of the Rockies Front Range inspired by the artist’s time living in Boulder, CO. Structured polygons and intersecting lines suggest a fragmented urban landscape shaped by the natural and built environments of the region. 

The composition organizes muted earth tones—blues, browns, oranges, and greens—within a grid-like framework of black angular lines, evoking architectural forms without explicit representation. Within select shapes, photographic textures of brick, wood paneling, flowering plants, and a sunset sky introduce tangible surface qualities that contrast with the otherwise flat, graphic elements.

This layered approach reflects a dialogue between the rugged mountain landscape and the urban environment, highlighting the dynamic tension between order and spontaneity. The work harnesses the discipline of architectural design, using geometry as an organizing principle while allowing the inclusion of evocative photographic fragments to ground the composition in real-world textures. The result is a cohesive yet fragmented visual experience that encourages reflection on the subtleties of place and memory through the convergence of abstraction and realism.
