Description
Sky and Earth – a cyan weave with a golden breakthrough
A blue-cyan woven field across three quarters of the canvas: fine vertical striping and transverse scratches give it the character of fabric, white horizontal dripping strokes run along the top edge, and down the left side descends a darker blue-grey smoke strand, densest at the upper centre-left.
Technique & Texture
The lower right quadrant belongs to the earth: an ochre-amber scratched gold field whose thinner traces trail on along the bottom edge to the left. This is a hand-painted work of art – the scratches in the gold and the weave in the blue are real furrows, not a pattern.
The Motif
The true light event hides in the lower right corner: a white burst from which scratchy rays radiate into the gold – a sun that breaks through the earth, not the sky. Above the gold, at the middle right, floats a pale glow like its echo.
Styling & Placement
A deep abstract painting for living rooms, offices and bedrooms; the cool blue calms, and the golden breakthrough gives it warmth and a story – wall art for walls that need both.

Sky and Earth on the wall: choosing a size
Sky and Earth comes in 14 square sizes, from 40 x 40 to 180 x 180 cm. Above a 150 cm two-seater choose 100 x 100 cm, above a 220 cm sofa 150 x 150 cm, and above a 180 cm bed 120 x 120 cm – about two thirds of the furniture’s width each time. In an office or a narrow hallway the cyan canvas fits at 70 x 70 cm. Choosing YES under Stretcher brings the canvas with its golden breakthrough on a wooden stretcher, ready to hang. No frame is included with the blue and gold painting, and the Frame menu starts at Without frame. Delivery takes 15–45 days.
The photograph shows it in an optional thin black frame above a dark grey upholstered two-seater, on a dark grey panelled wall. The scratches in the ochre gold and the weave in the blue are real furrows in the paint, because Sky and Earth is hand-painted, not a print.
