Shara Hughes — Magic Hour
Shara Hughes

Magic Hour

2016

In *Magic Hour*, Shara Hughes conjures a vivid, dreamlike landscape through her exuberant layering of oil, acrylic, spray paint, and dye on canvas. The composition pulses with electric color and gestural energy, blending organic forms with abstracted foliage and sky in a way that feels both intensely imagined and deeply felt. Hughes transforms the fleeting quality of twilight into something wild and euphoric, inviting the viewer into a personal, almost hallucinatory vision of nature.
