Artwork Description

Acrylic on canvas, stretched and ready to hang.

Signed on the front.

Staretto is the latest painting in my Reform series. It is a large colorful abstract artwork where I have embraced bold linear design with special attention to the balance of colors and relationships of the shapes.
The Reform series is based on architectural design from various locations around my home in Sydney Australia. I compose these works in various dimensions where some sections of the painting may be topographical, while other section may be enhanced minor details. The subject matter is not necessary to appreciate the artworks, which are large colour field abstract structural designs. I attempt to evoke a level of contradiction in the Reform series where the artwork may initially appear “neat” yet due to the painterly manner of paint application, they are not necessarily neat. The artworks in the series may also appear as simple blocks of colour, yet upon closer examination, the viewer will see under-painting details, and fine lines and redactions, which add complexity.
I intend to present a level of industrial design and feel. Many of my subjects in the series are older buildings such as industrial buildings, garages, and workshops. There is something authentic and real about these older buildings, and that level of evolution and devolution is relayed in my work. I draw inspiration artistically from renowned artists such as Diebenkorn, Rothko, and Mondrian.
Staretto has been continued over onto the sides which adds another dimension to the artwork, and also means it does not need to be framed. I have signed the painting and finished it off with several layers of matte varnish coat to highlight the colours, and to protect the painting.
Staretto has been painted on custom made artist-grade 120cm x 90xm Victorian Ash stretchers on 100% polyester canvas. The above photos present Staretto in a home setting, though it would work equally well in an office environment.
Note the images showing the painting mounted on the wall are for illustration purposes only. The correct measurements are provided. A handy way of determining just how this sized painting will work in your space is to use blue-tack dots or removable low tack masking tape on your wall to plot out the border of the painting. This method gives you a realistic impression of how the painting will fit on your wall.
