Blue Moby Dick — Fine Art

Blue Moby Dick by Jackson Pollock uses a deep blue field with darker blue lines crossing over it. The paint is laid down in thin layers, so the blue tones sit on top of each other. You can see the rhythm of the marks across the surface.

The object is a fine art print set in a frame with a back panel. The frame holds the blue tones flat and the back panel keeps the paper steady. The surface stays matte, so the blues do not shine under a lamp.

A narrow hallway wall works well for this picture. From the far end you see the blue tone first, then the crossing lines as you walk closer. The space stays quiet and the blue holds its own.
