Downtown Lincoln, NE is an original 14" x 12" acrylic painting by Lars Owens, capturing the iconic Nebraska State Capitol and surrounding downtown landmarks through expressive texture and dynamic brushwork. Bold yet intimate, the piece emphasizes the architectural elegance and quiet strength of the Capitol while celebrating the character and spirit of Lincoln’s cityscape.
 
Created using thick impasto acrylic applied with Lars’ own helical-bristle brush, this one-of-a-kind painting invites viewers to experience both the physicality of the paint and the rhythm of the urban environment. The layered surface gives depth and movement, making it a striking piece of contemporary Lincoln, Nebraska art that stands beautifully on its own as a collectible work.
 
Normally, a painting of this scale and quality on canvas would sell for $1,200, but since it is experimentally executed on Lexan, it is offered at a deeply discounted $250 unframed.
 
What sets this artwork apart is an optional added experience: each painting includes a discreet QR code that allows collectors to download and listen to an original song written in response to the piece. The music adds an emotional dimension to the visual experience, offering a unique way to connect with the painting—while the art itself remains the focal point.
