Description
Moon in the Night – a pale ring on sooty black
A single bone-pale ring on a sooty black grainy field – a darkened moon, the darkest and most minimal piece of the series: the ring sits right of centre, its right arc thick and crusted, bone-beige, like a bright rim, thinning toward the upper left and fading into a barely visible trace.
Technique & Texture
The interior of the ring is the same dark graininess as the field – the moon is dark, only its rim shines. This is a hand-painted painting on canvas – the field is a heavy grainy sooty black, with the texture of sand or coffee grounds.
The Motif
Along the top edge and in the upper right corner rust-copper glints flash, a copper hint breathes across the upper right, and along the right edge a faint violet sheen trembles. An eclipse caught in a single arc – a zen moon that burns on only one side.
Styling & Placement
A meditative canvas painting for bedrooms, living rooms and offices; the blackness calms, the pale ring draws the eye like a moon in the night. Wall art for quiet, focused spaces.

Moon in the Night: sizes, stretcher and frame for the dark canvas with the pale ring
Moon in the Night is painted in 14 almost square sizes, from 40 x 41 to 180 x 185 cm. Over a 200 cm sofa, choose 130 x 135 cm, which spans about two thirds of the sofa width. Above a bed 160–180 cm wide, pick 110 x 115 or 120 x 120 cm; for a long sideboard, 100 x 100 cm; and for a hallway, 60 x 60 or 70 x 70 cm. The first photograph shows Moon in the Night in a slim black frame above two wicker armchairs, and the second shows it above a low black table and a grey pouf.
Choose YES in the Stretcher menu and Moon in the Night arrives stretched on a wooden stretcher, ready to hang. A frame is optional: for Moon in the Night the Frame menu starts at “Without frame”. Delivery of Moon in the Night takes 15–45 days. The grainy black field and the crusted bone-beige arc are hand-painted in thick relief, so this painting is not a print.
Questions about Moon in the Night
Which size of Moon in the Night fits over a 200 cm sofa?
Take 130 x 135 cm, which spans about two thirds of the sofa width and keeps the pale ring near eye level.

Yes, with YES chosen in the Stretcher menu the sooty black canvas comes stretched on a wooden stretcher.

Is Moon in the Night a print?
No, the grainy black ground and the thick bone-pale arc of the ring are applied by hand, so the surface feels rough to the touch.
