Description
Nude II – a blue skirt against a red wall
Wall art swings one broad blue skirt across a saturated red field and rings the whole shape in heavy black: decorative painting built from two colours held at full strength, with nothing in between them to soften the meeting.
Technique and texture
The red is laid in thin even coats that darken very slightly toward the edges, which is what makes it read as a painted wall rather than as a background. The blue of the skirt is modelled from light to dark so the cloth takes on volume without a single drawn fold. A narrow brush carried the black contour, and it holds the same width from shoulder to hem.
The motif
The skirt takes most of the canvas and the body is subordinate to its shape, not the other way round. Both arms are held away from the torso and make two hard angles that answer the long soft curve beside them. There is no face and no detail below the shoulders, so the figure stays a posture rather than a person.
Setting and placement
Two colours at this strength will set the temperature of whatever hangs near them, so give the canvas a plain wall and no competing pattern. The tall narrow proportion is the practical part: it fits the strip beside a door or the gap between two windows where a wider picture would not.
- Technique: hand-painted painting on canvas, thin even ground coats, tonally modelled cloth, single-width black contour
- Palette: saturated red, cobalt blue, black, dark brown
- Ideal for: living rooms, hallways, entrance halls
- Character: graphic, confident, pared back

Nude II: an upright canvas for a narrow wall
Nude II is painted in 14 upright sizes, from 40 x 48 to 180 x 220 cm. The blue skirt on its red field is made for narrow walls: 50 x 60 or 60 x 73 cm in the strip beside a door, 70 x 80 cm between two windows, 80 x 95 cm above a console about 120 cm wide, and 100 x 120 or 120 x 145 cm on a tall stairwell wall.
When you choose YES under Stretcher, the canvas with the blue skirt and black contour arrives stretched on a wooden stretcher, ready to hang. A frame is optional: for Nude II the Frame menu starts at Without frame. Delivery takes 15–45 days. The thin coats of red, the modelled blue and the even black outline are hand-painted, so this painting is not a print.
Is Nude II the right graphic painting of a female figure in a blue skirt on red for a narrow wall?
Yes, Nude II is a bold, graphic painting of a female figure: a wide blue skirt swings across a saturated red field, a heavy black outline rings the whole shape, and the arms are held away from the body in two hard angles. The figure has no face, so Nude II shows a posture rather than a person. The narrow upright format belongs beside a door, between two windows or in an entrance hall, on a calm wall without pattern.
How is Nude II painted by hand?
Nude II is hand-painted by our painters: the red goes on in thin, even coats that darken very slightly toward the edges, the blue skirt is modelled from light to dark so the cloth gains volume without a single drawn fold, and the black outline is pulled with a narrow brush at the same width from shoulder to hem. When Nude II is finished, we send you a photograph of it to approve, then ship it.
How does Nude II arrive: rolled, stretched or framed?
We ship Nude II the way you choose: rolled, stretched on a 2.5 cm deep wooden stretcher, or framed. Nude II is stretched and framed in our workshop in Slovenia. Stretched, Nude II arrives ready to hang; rolled, it is practical for sizes up to 180 x 220 cm. A thin black frame repeats the black outline of the figure.
How should I hang and care for Nude II?
Keep the centre of Nude II at eye level, about 150 cm from the floor. Because two colours at full strength set the temperature of the room, give it a calm wall with no other paintings beside it. Clean the smooth planes of Nude II with a soft dry cloth, without water.
Is Nude II a good gift?
Nude II is a bold gift for a lover of modern figurative art, fashion and pure colour; 50 x 60 and 60 x 73 cm also fit beside a door. If you are not sure which size of Nude II is right, give a gift voucher.
