Description
Golden Layers – horizontal golden sweeps in a white haze
A white-grey atmosphere crossed at many heights by horizontal gold-bronze sweeps: from flecks at the top edge, through the strongest broad band at a good quarter of the height, to a clear band below the centre and scattered drops lower down – a rhythm that reads like a musical score.
Technique & Texture
The widths of the sweeps range from pencil-thin to a finger wide; in the broadest ones the knife texture is visible. This is a hand-painted work of art – every sweep has its own pressure, its own speed and its own ending.
The Motif
The gold gathers in the upper two thirds – the strongest mass left of centre with a cluster at the right edge – while the lower quarter calms down: fewer sweeps, paler tones, more haze. Grey blurred zones in the corners and along the left edge give the white ground its depth.
Styling & Placement
A musical, light-footed modern painting for living rooms, offices and hallways; the upright format and the rhythm of the sweeps make it lively without weighing the room down with colour.

Golden Layers for narrow and tall walls
Golden Layers is an upright painting in 14 sizes, from 40 x 60 to 180 x 265 cm. On a narrow wall or beside a door hang Golden Layers at 50 x 73 or 60 x 90 cm, and above a console 70 x 103 or 80 x 120 cm. A tall stairwell takes the gold-bronze sweeps at 100 x 150 or 120 x 175 cm, a wall under a high ceiling 150 x 220 cm. The first photograph is a close-up of the raised gold paint on the white ground, and the second photograph shows Golden Layers in a light frame behind a beige sofa with a round wooden table.
