Crimson Mirage

6.5x56

acrylic on wood panel framed in stained redwood and select pine

“Crimson Mirage” is a sweeping 12x60 inch panoramic painting that captures the fleeting drama of a coastal sunset through bold, expressionist brushwork and masterful color layering. The horizon smolders in crimson, violet, and gold, evoking a visceral sense of heat and calm just as day slips into night. Painted on wood with a natural frame, this landscape feels both grounded and ethereal, straddling the line between realism and abstraction. Its elongated composition makes it perfect as a statement piece for modern homes, coastal retreats, or collectors of sunset seascapes, sunset paintings, and panoramic art.

This piece showcases Nathan Gibbs’ signature style—evocative, moody, and always chasing light. It invites viewers to breathe in the atmosphere of the Pacific, where land and sea dissolve into color and memory. A perfect addition to any surf-inspired, minimalist, or contemporary rustic decor.
