April — Fine Art

April - 1969 shows hard lines and flat colour across the sheet. The shapes sit side by side, not mixing into one another. Allan D Arcangelo built this image with painted bands and clear edges. The work stays steady and plain on the page.

The fine art print sits on a wall at shoulder height. The frame finish can follow the room: a light frame on a dark wall, a dark frame on a pale wall, or a wood frame beside wooden furniture. On this sheet, the paint bands stay crisp because the matte paper does not add shine.

In a hallway near the front door, the painted lines step across the plaster. From the table in the dining room you see the edge of each colour band. The room stays quiet and the print holds its shape there.
