Description
Blue Semicircle – one form, one gesture
A single massive navy-slate arc in heavy impasto commands the cream-white canvas: it enters at the top edge, bulges right almost to the border and lands at the lower left, where its foot spreads along the bottom edge. The opening of the letter C looks to the left – a white pocket inside the arc.
Technique & Texture
Through the middle of the arc run parallel combed grooves that follow the curve like sculptural ribs; the edges crumble dry into the white, and the lower mass is the heaviest and roughest. This is a hand-painted painting on canvas – the grooves are drawn into a fresh, thick layer.
The Motif
To the right of the arc the canvas stays calm and white, with tiny dark specks – an emptiness that gives the form all the space. One form, one gesture: the painting is the record of a single decisive act.
Styling & Placement
Bold wall art on canvas for living rooms, offices and entrance halls; it works like a calligraphic sign at grand scale and gives the room a focus without filling it.

A tall format: sizes and delivery
Blue Semicircle is a tall, portrait-format painting in 16 sizes, from 40 x 63 to 200 x 319 cm. Beside an armchair or on a narrow wall choose 60 x 95 or 70 x 111 cm, in a hallway 50 x 79 cm, on a high living-room wall 100 x 159 or 120 x 191 cm, and for a floor-to-ceiling wall the larger sizes up to 200 x 319 cm. With YES under Stretcher it arrives stretched on a wooden stretcher bar and can be hung at once; you can add a frame, but it does not need one. Delivery time is 15–45 days.
The first photograph shows it unframed on a grey wall beside a chair and a small side table, and the second photograph moves closer to the ridged relief of the thick blue paint in the arc. No print produces relief like this: the painting is hand-painted on canvas.
Questions about Blue Semicircle
Which size of Blue Semicircle suits a narrow wall?
Beside an armchair or between doors choose 60 x 95 or 70 x 111 cm; the tall format uses the height of the wall without crowding it.
Is the relief of the blue arc real?
Yes. The second photograph shows the ridges of thickly applied paint, shaped by the painter’s hand; a print would be flat.
How long do I wait for delivery?
