Description:
Capturing a cool, winter day, this remarkably smashing artwork “Hockey on the Pond” is a high quality reproduction of a expertly rendered and playful watercolor painting. O’Hara masterfully captures the details of the brick inlay surrounding the pond with his use of the fine lines and smooth tonal transitions, as the tree branches and flecks of grass peaking through the winter snow are amazingly captured with O’Hara’s pinpoint brushmarks and attention to detail. The mastery of detail throughout this beautiful, panoramic view can be seen the awe striking technicality in the small figurative work of the boys playing hockey. The composition is perfectly completed by the warm, sunset lighting over the pond and the beautiful sky behind the horizon line of trees in the background creating a warm mood on a cold day.
This remarkable quality giclee print is s complimented by an incredibly substantial, silver frame, which is a work of art in itself, valuing at least $300. A brown wash is used to enhance the bark of the trees, as a double matt of an elegant moss suede is used to complement the textures of the painting and an inner crisp white for a sharp outline are used as a perfect marriage. The giclee and frame measures a total of 31” x 26”. Signed in the bottom right corner, “Hockey on the Pond” is an example of artistic genius. This giclee print will increase in value and is an extraordinary giclee print at a modest price.
