Colors on Gray — Fine Art

Colors on Gray - 1976 by Robert Goodnough sets soft colour shapes against a muted gray field. The tones sit close together, so the shifts feel steady rather than loud. You notice the painted blocks first, then the drawn marks on top.

This fine art print comes with a white, wood, dark wood or black frame. The frame finish gives the picture a clean edge on the wall. A dark wood frame keeps the gray ground from fading into the paint. A white frame lifts the lighter tones.

Hang it on a narrow hallway wall where the passing light changes the gray field during the day. From the landing you see the broad shapes. Closer in, the thin drawn marks catch the eye.
