Acrylic on canvas

Signed certificate of authenticity.

Inspired by the energy and vibration of colour, this swirling abstract pops with vibrant pinks and purple. It is layered with many marks and under painting, creating a journey for the eye.
I paint on unstretched canvas for a few reasons. I prefer the hardness of the surface on the floor or pinned to the wall. My finished paintings are rolled carefully and can be stored upright in tubes, taking up less room. Our humid weather in North Queensland isn't kind to stretcher bars and I have had too many that do not measure up to my standard of straight, especially when the work may be framed in expensive oak to finish it.
This piece will stretch at approximately 94 x 78 cm square, maybe larger if thin profile stretcher bars are used. The image you see here has been cropped to how it would stretch over large bars. Whichever bars are used, this is something I have considered in regard to my composition.
Oil pastel marks have been sealed.
Thank you for viewing my work!
