Description:
“Disintegrate My Blue Skies” by Justin Price explores the push and pull between melancholy and joy through layered abstraction and figurative detail. The composition features two women whose faces are painted with realistic precision, while their bodies dissolve into a vivid patchwork of color. Surrounding them, the textured background exists on the same visual plane—blurring the boundary between figure and space—its dense layering creating a sense of depth, movement, and emotional complexity.
The palette shifts between two worlds. One side is grounded in deep, moody tones of rich burgundy, royal blue, crimson, and slate gray, suggesting calm introspection and a quiet, ocean-like melancholy. In contrast, the other side bursts with green, magenta, and neon yellow—energized hues that radiate optimism. These flashes of color, often emerging from the figures themselves, suggest that the women are the source of light and resilience amid the turbulence, symbolic anchors that turn a difficult day toward hope.
Price’s mastery of oil paint is evident in the intricate layering of texture, color, and form. The interplay of controlled realism in the faces with the expressive abstraction of the bodies and background creates a dynamic tension. Every brushstroke and patch of color works in conversation, producing a cohesive whole that feels both emotionally grounded and visually alive.
“Disintegrate My Blue Skies” is ideal for collectors who value contemporary figurative art that merges abstraction with storytelling. It is a celebration of resilience, connection, and the ability to find beauty and balance amidst the chaos of the outside world.
