Description
She – a figure beside a mosaic band
Painting on canvas halves the canvas into two equal claims: a seated female figure in soft greenish and cream tones on the right, and a narrow band of dense mosaic pattern on the left — wall art whose subject is the contrast between one smooth continuous surface and one broken into hundreds of pieces. Her arms are raised above her head and her body turned slightly.
Technique and texture
The body is painted smoothly with gradual transitions and no visible strokes, so the skin takes on a greenish, almost stone-like tone. The mosaic band is the opposite: small sharply separated facets — squares, circles and dashes — laid in dense layers. The ground on the right is dark red and smoothed flat to hold the figure away from the edge.
The motif
The pattern on the left is built from blue circles, black rectangles and white-silver squares on an orange-red base. Because the band runs the full height of the canvas it reads as a hanging or a cloth rather than as a background. Her hair is red, waved, and falls at the side of her head.
Setting and placement
The format is upright and narrow, so it fills a slim wall, an alcove or the space between two windows. It belongs in a bedroom, a study or a hallway where there is enough quiet for a close look.

Choose the size that suits your wall.
She: which size for your wall
The painting She comes in the 13 sizes of its size menu, and the upright ones run from 40 x 80 to 180 x 360 cm. An alcove takes 40 x 80 cm, the space between two windows 70 x 140 cm, and a 120 cm console 80 x 160 cm, about two thirds of its width. Beside a staircase or along a long hallway the seated figure and her mosaic band come into their own at 110 x 220 or 130 x 260 cm.
With YES under Stretcher the canvas with the greenish figure and red hair arrives stretched on a wooden stretcher, ready for the wall. A frame is not counted in; in the Frame menu, which starts at Without frame, you add one to the dark red ground if you like. The 100 x 50, 120 x 60 and 145 x 70 cm sizes arrive in 6 days, the others in 15–45 days. The smooth body and hundreds of mosaic facets are hand-painted on canvas, so the painting is not a print.
Questions about She
Which size of She fits between two windows?
Between two windows the figure beside the mosaic band sits well at 70 x 140 cm; for a narrower alcove choose 40 x 80 cm.
Is She ready to hang on arrival?
Yes, choose YES under Stretcher and the canvas with the greenish figure is stretched on a wooden stretcher.
Is a frame already included with She?
No, a frame around the dark red ground of She is optional, and its Frame menu starts at Without frame.
Can I order She in a size that is not in the menu?
You can: if none of the 13 sizes suits you, ask about a painting made to order with the mosaic band at your measurements.
