The inspiration for Xia stems from the sand dunes in the desert. The warm wind sweeping away grains of sand. With this concept in mind, Montana sketched a composition that visually captures this sensation. Her meticulous attention to color selection enhances and amplifies the painting’s emotional resonance, using a carefully chosen palette of orange blue and pink to evoke the shifting dynamics of sand and air. The waves in her lines amplify the sense of motion, mirroring the graceful movement of wind shaping the dunes.
The painting is a one-of-a-kind, hand painted stripes painting by Montana Engels.
Special about the technique is that Montana invented this way of painting and that when looking at it up close it looks abstract while the further you move away from the painting, the MORE detailed it gets.
