Description
Universe II – rings around a bright centre
Wall art coils concentric rings around a white-silver core lying left of centre: painting on canvas made with one continuous circular gesture repeated in ever-wider orbits until it runs out of canvas.
Technique and texture
Because the blade never lifted, the furrows stay parallel and cross nowhere. The core is the thickest part of the picture: white and silver are gathered there into a ridge that catches light at a sharp angle. Toward the outer edges the paint was pulled drier, and the canvas comes through in places.
The motif
The core is not at the centre of the canvas, so the rings are not symmetrical — those on the left run narrow and tight, those on the right wide and drawn out. A darker blue from an underlayer breaks through between the blue-greens here and there. There is no object; movement is the whole motif.
Setting and placement
A cool palette is a counterweight rather than an accent: against warm timber or brick it steadies a room instead of competing with it. The turning motion is slow and even, which is why this one holds up in a bedroom or a bathroom as readily as in a bright living room.
- Technique: hand-painted painting on canvas, one unbroken circular blade gesture, ridged core, dry-pulled outer edges
- Palette: blue-green, blue, white, silver
- Ideal for: bedrooms, bathrooms, living rooms

Universe II over a bed, a sofa or in a hallway
Over a bed 160–180 cm wide the blue-green rings of Universe II fill 110 x 55 or 120 x 60 cm, and over a 200 cm sofa 130 x 65 cm, roughly two thirds of the furniture width. Above a 150 cm dining table 100 x 50 cm is enough, while a long hallway gives the white-silver core left of centre room at 160 x 80 cm. Universe II is painted as a landscape canvas in 19 sizes, from 60 x 30 to 340 x 170 cm.
Choose YES in the Stretcher menu and the ringed canvas comes stretched on a wooden stretcher, ready to hang. A frame for Universe II is optional, and Without frame is the first choice in its Frame menu. Delivery takes 15–45 days. The circular furrows are hand-painted in one unbroken sweep of the blade, so the painting Universe II is not a print.
Universe II: three questions before buying
Which size of Universe II suits a bedroom wall over the bed?
For a bed 160–180 cm wide take 110 x 55 or 120 x 60 cm, so the blue-green rings stay calm above the headboard.
Does Universe II arrive ready to hang?
Yes, with YES in the Stretcher menu the canvas with the white-silver core comes stretched on a wooden stretcher.
Can I order Universe II in a size that is not listed?
Yes, if no format from 60 x 30 to 340 x 170 cm fits, we paint the rings as a painting made to order.
