Radiant Joy

Radiant Joy by Christine McArdle bursts with vibrant, expressive energy. This intuitive, heart-shaped abstract painting is where movement and emotion collide in luminous colour.

The canvas is infused with warm pinks and oranges, softened by pale blue accents that bring spaciousness and breath. On the left, loose lines and circular white forms evoke a subtle floral quality, organic, open, and gently rhythmic. Eight white brush marks, drawn with a round tipped brush, gesture inward toward the centre like petals or pods.

On the right, this delicacy gives way to pure expression. Flicks of dynamic paint create a sense of motion and spontaneity, anchored by four curved blue strokes that offer structure and flow. Though the piece is not divided by a literal line, there’s a distinct sense of energetic polarity, blooming presence on one side, kinetic movement on the other.

Radiant Joy is an artwork that hums with aliveness, offering a visual embodiment of heartfelt expression and creative energy.

Acrylic on stretched canvas, sides painted and sealed with satin varnish for protection and longevity. An original, one of a kind artwork, radiant, alive, and ready to hang.
