19.12.66 — Fine Art

A bold colour field sits on the canvas in 19.12.66 - 1966. Broad strokes of blue and red press against a soft ground. The mark making feels direct, like the paint was laid down in one working session. John Hoyland often worked this way, building a surface with thick paint and simple blocks of tone.

This is a fine art print set in a frame with a back panel. The frame keeps the surface flat and protects the image. The back panel gives the piece a firm edge when it sits on a wall.

It fits a kitchen wall near a tall cabinet. The broad colour blocks hold their own against the white tile. From the sink you see the main shapes, and the small paint lines show when you pass by.
