The Streets Of San Francisco

Monumental art has moved audiences for thousands of years, conveying powerful emotions and depicting incredible stories and awe-inspiring forces of nature. In the breath-taking bodies of original work, the internationally acclaimed artist has painted on a larger scale than ever before, from majestic seascapes and calming landscapes to electric cityscapes.

Much like the unpredictability of the big cities, Paul Kenton creates his monumental artworks with a spontaneous energy and fluidity that allows him to mimic their primal beauty. Rather than a still moment in time, Kenton tries to capture a sequence of movements in his cityscapes. “The Street of San Francisco”, one of the artist’s favourite paintings, captures in a film-like setting a snapshot of life in San Francisco.

The highly textured surface was build-up of paint over the years, with the loose paint marks being the perfect back drop for this piece. The soft dark hues offer a new dimension to the piece, and combined with the details and light contrast, bring serenity and a calm feeling. The piece’s ability to make a statement is unmatched, allowing collectors to have a hypnotising escape in their house.
