Gateway – Original Large Eye Painting | Abstract Expressionist Wall Art

“Gateway” is a bold, large-scale close-up painting of a single eye that commands attention the moment it enters a room. Rendered in vivid, sweeping strokes of hot pink, golden orange, sky blue, lavender, and yellow, the surrounding eye shadow and abstract color field create a dreamlike, almost cosmic atmosphere.

At the center, the eye itself is painted with remarkable realism — a rich amber-brown iris with fine radiating detail, a deep black pupil, and a subtle white light reflection that gives it an almost lifelike depth. Long, dramatic lashes sweep upward and downward, outlined in bold black that anchors the composition against the explosion of color surrounding it.

The piece sits at the intersection of realism and abstract expressionism — the eye grounded and intimate, the background free-flowing and emotional. It feels both deeply personal and universally captivating, as if the viewer is being seen as much as they are seeing.

Signed by the artist, “Gateway” is a one-of-a-kind original painting that makes a powerful statement in any home, studio, or gallery space.
