Hillside Color - Painting - Monique Sarkessian

Hillside Color is a commanding original work by Philadelphia-based artist Monique Sarkessian, rendered on canvas at 11 × 11 inches. Created in 2026, the piece carries the quiet authority of a devotional object — a meditation on worth, reverence, and the weight of what we choose to crown.

Sarkessian's layered approach draws the eye inward, inviting the viewer to sit with the image rather than simply observe it. The title suggests both adornment and belonging — something precious, held close, elevated.

This work is ideal for a collector drawn to figurative or symbolic painting with emotional depth. It arrives ready to anchor a wall, a room, a conversation.
