Description
Sand and Turquoise – a horizon in a dark vignette
A two-part colour field like a view of the sea from the shade: a sandy beige field above, mottled and warmest at its centre, a turquoise-blue field below, and both embraced by a deep black-brown vignette, heaviest at the corners and the bottom edge – a dramatic frame for a calm horizon.
Technique & Texture
The turquoise field hides a pale mosaic within itself: soft vertical and horizontal seams divide it into five or six pale blocks, and it darkens toward its lower corners. This is a hand-painted work of art – the transitions are rubbed in, not drawn.
The Motif
The horizon between the fields is not a dark line but a bright silver-white band with tiny white glints and a thin rust thread in its right half – brighter than both fields, like the last light between sea and sky.
Styling & Placement
A deep decorative painting for living rooms, bedrooms and dining rooms; it works like a window onto dusk above the sea and gives the room calm with a dramatic edge.

Sand and Turquoise: sizes, hanging and delivery
Sand and Turquoise comes in 14 square sizes, from 40 x 40 to 180 x 180 cm. Over a 200 cm sofa, the sand and turquoise canvas at 130 x 130 cm covers about two thirds of its width. Above a 160–180 cm bed, 110 x 110 or 120 x 120 cm works well, over a 150 cm sideboard take 100 x 100 cm, and in a narrow hallway the silver horizon works at 60 x 60 cm.
The first photograph shows Sand and Turquoise above a pale grey sofa in a wooden frame, and the second photograph is a close-up of the turquoise blocks and the dark canvas edge. Choose YES in the Stretcher menu and the painting with its dark vignette arrives stretched on a wooden stretcher, ready to hang. A frame for Sand and Turquoise is optional, set in the Frame menu from “Without frame”. Delivery of Sand and Turquoise takes 15–45 days. The fields are hand-painted and rubbed in, so Sand and Turquoise is not a print.
Buyer questions about Sand and Turquoise
Which size of Sand and Turquoise suits the wall above a bed?
For a bed 160–180 cm wide choose 110 x 110 or 120 x 120 cm, so the turquoise field does not overpower the headboard.
Does Sand and Turquoise arrive ready to hang?
Yes, with YES chosen in the Stretcher menu the canvas with its sandy field comes stretched on a wooden stretcher.
Is a frame included with Sand and Turquoise?
No, the Frame menu starts at “Without frame”, and a thin wooden frame for the sand and turquoise fields is added only if you want one.
Can I order Sand and Turquoise in another size?
Yes, we paint the dark vignette and silver horizon as a painting made to order to the measurements of your wall.
