Overcoming
Oil on canvas | 24 x 36 inches
In Overcoming, dense storm mass gives way to rising illumination. Vertical movement dominates the composition, with layered charcoal and ultramarine clouds fractured by fire-lit light that pushes upward through weight and shadow.
Balancing atmospheric abstraction with structural realism, this painting explores the moment tension shifts — when pressure becomes lift, and darkness becomes architecture for light.
Part of the Storm Collection, Overcoming reflects Janine Crum’s ongoing exploration of resilience, scale, and the emotional landscape of weather.
Special thanks to storm chaser and friend, Adam Jackson, for allowing me to use his photograph for inspiration for this painting.
