About
This large-scale original abstract painting by Marco Schmidli, A827 (68 x 90 inches), is a breathtaking example of contemporary art that blends atmospheric abstraction and a layered, luminous color palette.
The surface is alive with subtle tonal variations, where deep navy and indigo blues dissolve into glowing aquas, silvers, and soft sky tones. Schmidli’s technique creates a sense of movement across the canvas, as if the work captures a horizon caught between water and sky, inviting collectors to experience the meditative calm of nature through a purely abstract lens. The layered pigments enhance depth and dimension, producing an almost ethereal glow that shifts with the light.
This 68 inch high by 90 inch wide original artwork is an abstract composition in acrylic paint on canvas. The sides are painted and it does not require framing. Schmidli uses acrylic paint to create the deep tonality of his colorful works.
The mood of this artwork is contemplative and expansive, evoking feelings of serenity, renewal, and boundless possibility. Its immersive size makes it an impressive statement piece for modern interiors, where its reflective quality and oceanic palette resonate with both elegance and emotional presence.
This original painting is signed and dated on the back of the canvas. Free local Los Angeles delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and worldwide shipping available. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included.
Swiss born artist Marco Schmidli creates minimalist paintings with a contemporary edge. Placing emphasis on process, he lets the mediums naturally manifest within his artwork. “An important aspect of my artwork is the removal of my own artistic hand. Instead of controlling and demanding the paint move and act a certain way, I let the paint naturally manifest and express its pure form/ true colors/ most natural movement.” Schmidli's work is known for its sensitive surfaces and subtle textures. He has developed specialized techniques for applying and layering color, giving depth to his paintings.
