This digital wall art download features a brilliant core of fiery orange and gold, with sweeping, electric blue ribbons of light reaching upward and outward. Because the artwork is built from meticulous photographic layers, it offers incredible depth and a sense of powerful, upward momentum. Suited to the Idea-Engine and Curator archetypes. Instant digital download, printable up to 30″ x 45″ (76cm x 114cm).
About This Artwork
“The Ascent” is a breathtaking exploration of upward momentum and ambition. Unlike the horizontal pull of “The Twin Flames,” this composition is angled diagonally, with the light trails shooting upward like a rocket or a bird taking flight. The glowing orange core acts as the engine, while the blue trails create a sense of speed and escape.
The Artisan Process: Digital Layering & Light
These are not AI-generated images. Every piece in the Luminous Art Collection is a masterful digital composition created by Michael Paul Bennett.
The process begins with original photographic elements. Using Adobe Photoshop, Michael converts the images into Smart Objects and begins a meticulous layering process. He applies the Mezzotint filter—which includes long strokes—alongside distortion techniques like Twirl to create a rich, textured base. Next, he adjusts the colour balance of these individual layers and changes their blending types. Finally, Michael takes the artwork into Adobe Lightroom to deep-dive into the shadows, achieving that signature deep black background and vibrant colour pop.
