Somewhere Over Jesus by Kurtis Brand
61" × 41"
Acrylic on Canvas with Oil Pastel and Charcoal
Ochre, straw, and dusty rose worked across the whole surface, with teal and oxblood surfacing through the weave. Rounded forms curve and overlap everywhere, drawn around in brown and charcoal contour, closer to bodies than to objects. The title is hand-written at the upper left corner; script runs throughout in white and red. Warm muted palette, continuous line, a crowded garden of figures.
Five feet tall and dense from edge to edge. Suits a study, a stairwell, or a bedroom where someone stands close enough to follow the drawing. The warm ochres sit naturally with wood, brass, and low lamplight.
