Cappadocia

38 × 60 in — Acrylic on Canvas — Original Painting by Claire Price

Painted from a photograph taken while drifting above the landscape in a hot air balloon, Cappadocia captures the sensation of rising into vastness — where horizon, atmosphere, and memory dissolve into one luminous field. Scattered balloons float quietly across a glowing sky, transforming a real journey into an expansive, almost dreamlike terrain.

Layered acrylic gestures create depth and movement, balancing expressive abstraction with the intimacy of lived experience. Rather than depicting a place, the painting holds a moment of elevation — a suspended perspective between earth and sky that speaks to Claire Price’s ongoing exploration of nature as a cosmic mirror.

Large in scale and immersive in presence, Cappadocia anchors the Silent Horizons collection as a work of quiet power and expansive vision.
