Where Water Meets Earth

Where Water Meets Earth
Petter Leigel, 50 × 60 in, Mixed Media on Canvas

This painting by Petter Leigel feels like a shifting terrain between water and land. The cool blues and grays flow across the canvas like rivers or melting ice, while earthy browns and greens interrupt with solidity. There’s a strong sense of contrasts — fluidity versus stability, transience versus permanence.

Cool layers of blue and gray cascade across the surface, intersected by earthy tones of brown and green. The composition evokes landscapes in flux, where water dissolves boundaries and land asserts its presence. Leigel’s textured approach transforms natural elements into abstract harmonies of tension and balance.
