Description
Distance – a white axis between grey and red
Wall art partitions the canvas with a white vertical, soft grey to its left and a glowing red-orange plane to its right — modern painting built this way asks to be read as weather on either side of a line rather than as one picture.
Technique and texture
The grey is painted in broad, slightly dry strokes that leave the weave visible in places. The red-orange field is its opposite — dense and even, passing into yellow toward the lower edge. Every shape is outlined with a thin black line, drawn freely and nowhere corrected.
The motif
A small stylised head stands beside the axis, cream-faced under a dark cap of hair, and it is the only recognisable thing in the picture; everything else stays a shape without a name. White outlined rounded forms are strung in an arc from left to right and shrink toward the bottom, each with a different core. Blue and green appear only in fragments, so the eye goes looking for them.
Setting and placement
A square canvas divided into a pale half and a saturated one can hold a wall by itself, without other work beside it. Above a low chest, or in a dining room, the red side does the warming.

Distance: square sizes for your wall
Distance, with its white vertical between grey and red-orange, is made in 14 square sizes from 40 x 40 to 180 x 180 cm. A square asks nothing of the wall’s direction, so Distance sits comfortably above many kinds of furniture. The guide is two thirds of the furniture’s width: 130 x 130 or 140 x 140 cm over a 200 cm sofa, 110 x 110 or 120 x 120 cm over a 160–180 cm bed, 100 x 100 cm over a 150 cm sideboard, and 60 x 60 cm in a hallway.
Choose YES under Stretcher and Distance comes stretched on a wooden stretcher, ready to hang straight away. No frame is included with Distance, and its Frame menu opens at Without frame. Delivery takes 15–45 days. The small stylised head beside the white axis and the rounded white forms are hand-painted with a thin black outline, so this painting is not printed.
Common questions about Distance
Which size of Distance fits above a bed?
Above a 160–180 cm bed, Distance at 110 x 110 or 120 x 120 cm fills about two thirds of its width.
Is a frame included with Distance?
No, the Frame menu for Distance starts at Without frame, and a frame is added only if you pick one.
How long does delivery of Distance take?
The red-orange and grey canvas with its white axis arrives in 15–45 days.
Can I get Distance in a size that is not listed?
Yes, we also paint the white vertical between grey and red as a painting made to order if none of the 14 square sizes suits you.
