Description
Warm Tones – a red accent in an apricot field
A warm-toned abstraction – an apricot-beige field with a commanding red complex right of centre, a mosaic of knife tiles upper left, a silver-grey wash pooling lower left and long scratched calligraphic lines across the lower half: the central red complex dominates the composition, with a black block at its left shoulder.
Technique & Texture
A maroon band is at the left edge over a slate-grey slab, and a second red cluster on the right carries peach and olive dabs with a red block at the edge. This is a hand-painted painting on canvas – a dark brown-black column descends below the centre, and a silver-grey wash gathers at the lower left.
The Motif
Peach-gold columns mirror at the lower centre-right, long scratched diagonals cross the lower half, and a thin white arc-like strand rises left of centre with white spray strokes at the upper right. Warm tones, where the red complex holds the eye as the centre of gravity, and calmer grey and peach planes scatter around it.
Styling & Placement
A warm decorative painting for living rooms, dining rooms and reception areas; the red accent heats the room, the grey tones calm it. Wall art for spaces with a warm, expressive character.
