Measuring 36 x 36 inches, this piece captures the genesis of Toro’s abstract expressionist style, drawing inspiration from the gestural energy of Willem de Kooning and the vibrant color play of Joan Mitchell. Painted with a large palette knife and finished with a glossy sheen, this artwork evokes the dynamic rush of a tropical waterfall, making it a coveted treasure for collectors seeking a piece with historical significance and vibrant energy.

The painting bursts with a palette that mirrors the lively chaos of a tropical forest waterfall. Lush greens and yellows dominate the canvas, cascading like the verdant foliage surrounding a rushing cascade, their vibrancy amplified by the large palette knife’s bold, textured strokes. These earthy hues are interwoven with deep blues and teals, which flow through the composition like the shimmering water of a waterfall, adding a sense of movement and depth. Fiery reds and oranges streak across the surface like bursts of tropical flora or the sun’s reflection on water, infusing the piece with warmth and intensity, while hints of white and purple add a soft, misty quality, enhancing the painting’s sonic energy.

The glossy finish amplifies the artwork’s luminous quality, making the colors shimmer with a radiant, almost liquid-like intensity that feels alive with the sound of rushing water. Toro’s use of a large palette knife creates a richly textured surface, with each stroke capturing the raw, untamed energy of a tropical forest. “Sonic Tropical Forest Waterfall” is a visual symphony, blending color and form in a way that feels both exhilarating and immersive.

Let “Sonic Tropical Forest Waterfall” bring its vibrant energy and timeless allure into your collection—don’t miss the chance to own this breathtaking piece from 2014 that captures the essence of a tropical cascade in stunning color and form.
