Taupe Shodo

This painting is on a taupe coloured base. This taupe colour is close to a rice paper colour for the asian effect. The black brush strokes are in the style of the Chinese/Japanese Shodo calligraphy. The pale white strokes are a subtle see through over layer to add movement and harmony to the painting.
Again i am using a pig haired brush which give a beautiful dry brush finish. The painting is finished in a subtle satin varnish which enhances and protects the paint
This painting is 122 cm wide and 91 cm high and 4 cm deep. Painted edges complete the balance.
The Tuape base is compatible with most wall colours to enhance the asian theme.
On the back is a signed and dated Certificate of Authenticity. It is wired and ready to hang with felt cushion to protect your walls.
