Bursting Light by David Ridley
An original abstract by David Ridley, with a vivid burst of crimson, violet and amber exploding outward through turquoise and teal, like light refracted through water. Presented framed in a 2cm float frame.
Bursting Light by David Ridley is the most vividly coloured of Ridley's abstracts, built around an explosive central collision of crimson, deep violet, burnt orange and black, set against a surrounding field of bright turquoise and teal. Heavily textured brushwork gives that central cluster real physical presence, colours pushing and interlocking against one another, while soft vertical streaks of pale cream and white cut down through the centre of the composition, suggesting a shaft of light breaking through the colour.
Where Ridley's quieter abstracts lean into warm neutrals or cool greys, Bursting Light is unapologetically bold, the saturated turquoise ground making the jewel-toned centre sing even more intensely. It's a piece with genuine energy and movement, the radiating structure giving it a sense of continuous outward motion, as though caught at the exact moment of eruption.
As an original piece, signed by the artist and presented in a 2cm float frame that lets the raw canvas edge show for a clean, contemporary finish, this is a one-of-a-kind, high-impact work suited to a space wanting real colour and drama.
