Description
Golden Vortex – a storm eye in spiral rings
A huge storm-eye spiral filling the whole canvas, with rings of teal, white and charcoal turning around an eye in the upper right corner, gold chains riding the ring crests: the eye sits upper right, wrapped in a tight gold ring with a dark teal core.
Technique & Texture
The successive rings widen to the left and downward – a white band, a teal band, a charcoal-navy band – rising through the lower half and back up the left side. This is a hand-painted painting on canvas – the rings are dry-brushed and textured, and the gold flakes are thick with black grit.
The Motif
Broken gold chains follow two arcs – an inner one around the eye and a long outer one from the upper centre through the left middle to the lower right edge – while the lower left corner stays pale, outside the vortex. A centripetal force that pulls the eye into the centre and will not let it go.
Styling & Placement
A hypnotic decorative painting for living rooms, offices and reception areas; the vortex draws the eye, the gold lends it luxury. Wall art for walls that love movement.

Choose YES in the Stretcher menu and the canvas with its gold chains arrives on a wooden stretcher. Golden Vortex has no frame unless you pick one in the Frame menu. Delivery takes 15–45 days.
