Description

‘Moonrise’ is a striking contemporary painting of a hare in full flight beneath a deepening dusk sky, where violet, hot pink and teal merge with subtle autumnal tones to capture the energy and atmosphere of the changing seasons.

At the centre of the painting is a bold, highly metallic gold moon. Its reflective surface catches and shifts with the light as you move around the room, changing from rich, warm gold to a luminous metallic glow. Set against the atmospheric depth of the evening sky, it creates a strong and luxurious focal point.

The hare is captured mid-leap, its movement bringing energy and freedom to the composition. There is a wonderful contrast between the dynamic sweep of the hare and the stillness of the rising moon, creating a sense of movement through the landscape and across the changing sky. Autumn is suggested through the warmth and depth of the palette, evoking the transition from late summer into cooler, darker evenings.

The title ‘Moonrise’ reflects this moment of transition — dusk settling over the landscape, the last traces of daylight deepening into richer colour as the moon begins to rise.

Painted using a combination of acrylic and spray paint, ‘Moonrise’ combines fine, considered detail with expressive contemporary textures. Layers of violet, teal and hot pink create a hazy, atmospheric sky, while warmer autumnal tones add depth and balance. The sweeping movement of the hare brings another layer of energy to the composition.

The metallic gold moon is particularly striking in person. Rather than appearing as a flat area of colour, its highly reflective surface responds to the changing light in the room, shifting in tone and intensity. It can appear warm and burnished from one angle, then bright and luminous from another, giving the moon an almost tangible presence against the darker sky.

The painting is presented in a clean white contemporary wooden floating frame, allowing the artwork — and particularly the metallic gold — to take centre stage while keeping the overall presentation crisp and refined.

Measuring 54 cm x 54 cm including the frame, ‘Moonrise’ is an elegant statement piece for contemporary and understated interiors. Its atmospheric tones, flashes of vibrant colour and striking metallic gold work particularly well against neutral walls and natural materials, bringing depth, texture and a considered touch of colour without overwhelming a space.

The painting is signed by the artist Sian Storey on both the front and reverse.

How it was created

'Moonrise' was painted by Sian Storey in the early days of autumn 2026. As the one-and-only owner of this original artwork, you’ll discover details that photographs simply can’t capture. Delicate, considered brushwork sits alongside soft, hazy layers of spray paint, creating rich painterly textures and subtle shifts of colour that invite you to pause and look closer.

Sian works intuitively in layers, gradually building the hare, landscape and atmospheric dusk sky. Acrylic paint creates the form and finer details, while spray paint is used to soften edges and create the hazy, diffused quality of the evening sky.

The autumnal influence comes through in the warmth and depth of the colours, reflecting the gradual shift from lighter summer days towards the richer, darker tones of autumn.

The metallic gold moon is layered and finished to create a highly reflective surface, giving it a particularly luxurious quality. As natural or artificial light moves across the painting, the gold catches and reflects it differently, making this an element that is difficult to fully appreciate in photographs.

This combination of detailed brushwork, atmospheric spray paint and reflective metallic gold gives ‘Moonrise’ its distinctive character — contemporary, sophisticated and entirely one of a kind.

This painting, your walls

‘Moonrise’ brings atmosphere, depth and a striking metallic accent into your home.

The dusk-like palette creates a sense of calm and intimacy, while the gold moon provides a strong, glowing focal point. Against neutral interiors, the violet, teal and pink reveal themselves as subtle flashes of colour within the deeper tones, rather than dominating the room.

It would sit beautifully within a sophisticated contemporary interior, particularly alongside warm neutrals, natural textures, dark woods, or earthy tones.

A statement piece with a quieter presence than its colours might suggest, ‘Moonrise’ is designed to draw you in, with the hare, changing-season landscape and luminous gold moon revealing more the longer you look.
