Slowing Down

Andrew McDermott’s original artwork, Slowing Down, distills the fleeting nature of urban transit into a meditative visual experience. The vertical composition centers on a curving asphalt road where a "40" speed limit marker is rendered in textured, gestural strokes. This impressionistic approach creates a sense of kinetic energy, contrasting the rough grey pavement with blurred foliage and a vivid turquoise sky. The piece captures the moment of deceleration, transforming a mundane streetscape into a contemplative study of pace and place.

Presented in a refined, brushed-finish neutral frame, the work is prepared for immediate display. Its sophisticated palette of lavender, slate grey, and muted reds ensures it complements modern and minimalist interiors. As a singular original piece, Slowing Down offers collectors a distinctive addition to their portfolio, combining narrative intrigue with high-quality artistic craftsmanship and lasting provenance.
