Description
Ambient V – A Collision of Red, Yellow, and Cobalt
The boldest painting of the Ambient series: the left half is taken up by a massive vivid red-orange mass, stacked from brick-like palette-knife slabs, while the upper right part darkens into a maroon-black zone – the same fiery family, but in shadow. Between them runs a dialogue of power.
Technique & Texture
The slabs of paint are laid like bricks, scratched and layered; the surface is raw and decisive. It is a hand-painted artistic painting – a wall of paint that can never be built the same way twice.
The Motif
Cool strikes hold the balance: groups of fractured cobalt blue blocks above black masses in the middle of the right half and at the lower right, vivid yellow bands along the far left edge, a yellow pillar in the dark upper right, and a yellow square in the blackness at the lower right. Along the bottom edge a green-black band with an orange patch grounds the composition.
Styling & Placement
Wall art for brave spaces – lofts, offices with an industrial character, modern living rooms with neutral furnishings that this fiery block gives a centre.

Ambient V – from 40 x 40 to 180 x 180 cm
Ambient V is painted in 14 square sizes, from 40 x 40 to 180 x 180 cm. The red-orange mass of palette-knife slabs needs room, so take 140 x 140 cm above a 200 cm sofa, 100 x 100 cm over a 150 cm sideboard and 160 x 160 or 180 x 180 cm in a high-ceilinged loft. With Ambient V, keep to roughly two thirds of the width of the furniture below.
In the photograph the painting stands in an optional silver frame, leaning against a white wall in our studio. The cobalt blocks and yellow bands are hand-painted with a palette knife, and no slab of paint is printed. If you choose YES under Stretcher, the canvas with its fiery block comes stretched on a wooden stretcher, ready to hang. A silver frame is picked in the Frame menu, which starts at Without frame. Ambient V is delivered in 15–45 days.
Questions about Ambient V
Which size of Ambient V suits a loft or office?
For a high loft wall or an industrial office we suggest 160 x 160 or 180 x 180 cm, so the red-orange mass and blue blocks have full force.
Is the silver frame included with Ambient V?
The frame for Ambient V is chosen separately. The Frame menu starts at Without frame, and a silver or other frame is added only if you select it.
Is Ambient V printed on canvas?
No. The red-orange slabs, the maroon-black zone and the yellow square are hand-painted on canvas with a palette knife.
