Vertical Landscape Painting
Haileigh Stathopoulos
This unique piece of art is created by Jason Middlebrook, an American artist who was born in 1996. It was created in 2011, and Middlebrook called it the Vertical Landscape Painting. This piece of art, is half of a tree, and was painted on the cut side.
The reason this artwork is so different and unique is because it is made out of a part of nature itself. The cute half of this tree was then painted with multiple different paints and is now a very beautiful and popular piece of art. It was created on a plank of wood, like all of Middlebrook's sculptures, with acrylic on a black walnut plank.
Almost all of Jason Middlebrook's artwork is made with wood and he has a special technique with how he does his own work. Since this was so recently made, it does not have much to do with his culture or with his religion.
This sculpture caught my eye, from the height and colors. It was very tall, and I knew immediately that it was made out of a tree. Which made me want to know a lot more about the process and making of this special piece of art. The way Middlebrook had made this is very different than most of the art I have seen before.
