Description
Heat with no source. Ochre, rust, and yellow blend together; a touch of violet at the top; a light spot in the center like a breath. Nothing is being told here. The painting simply maintains the wall’s temperature.
Subject: a non-representational surface. It is not a sunset, though it approaches one. It is not an interior. It is light without a scene.
Style: lyrical abstraction. Impasto acrylic, soft transitions, rough texture. Close to color field painting; color as atmosphere, not as drawing.
From a distance, a warm square that brings calm to the room. Up close, the texture of the canvas, a layer of ochre, and the signature in the lower right corner.
It fits well in a living room or bedroom, with wood, linen, and beige walls. An evening lamp will make it stand out even more.
Original.
