Word is silver, silence is gold; surrealistic close-up characters on whimsical landscape oil on canvas inspired by Frans Hals, Alan Lee, Rene Magritte and Hugo Simberg
A highly detailed fantasy painting shows two large statues made of metal, one of silver and one of gold, with a golden landscape and river between them. On the left, a silver knight statue with a stylized helmet and armor stands with her mouth open, spewing forth a stream of silver and gold coins. Rings of these coins spiral around her body, with Latin words written on them. A gold belt with a delicate chain and small golden bells adorns her waist. The background behind the knight on the left is a thicket of small pink trees, which contrasts with the muted silver. On the right, a gold statue of a woman in a long, pleated golden gown, with braided hair and a halo, holds a golden orb that has a miniature representation of the golden landscape in the center of the painting. Her eyes are closed in peaceful contemplation. Between these two figures is a tranquil, golden river that reflects two massive golden trees, each on its own small rocky island, connected by a delicate bridge. Other small white rock structures are visible near the edges of the river. The sky above is a beautiful array of fluffy clouds and blue sky, with a bright sun at the horizon. The riverbank closest to the viewer is lined with pink and yellow
