Midnight Pond, 12x24 Original Fluid Acrylic on Gallery‑Wrapped Canvas (Unframed, Finished Edges) – Embrace the Unknown Series – Theresa Henderson (2022)
$0.00
Moonlit ripples shimmer across an inky expanse in Midnight Pond. Henderson begins with a velvety cobalt ground, then pools pewter‑gray and hints of viridian in gentle, elliptical motions, echoing the concentric waves a single pebble might cast after dark. A quick blast of air skims the surface, feathering pale streaks that resemble reflected starlight dancing atop still water.
Subtle mica flecks lie just beneath the upper glaze; they ignite only when light catches them at a raking angle, mirroring fireflies that spark and vanish at the pond’s edge. Hovering over the deepest zone, a soft lavender haze suggests night‑blooming lilies releasing their scent into cool air. The painting lulls the viewer into hushed observation—an invitation to lean over the water’s edge and listen to silence speak.
