Overture, 1992 — Fine Art

Overture, 1992- sits on the page with open areas of paint laid in thin layers. The surface holds stained colour that sits into the ground, with broad tone bands drifting across the field. Helen Frankenthaler worked with this soak stain method in her later colour field paintings.

This fine art print is ready to hang on arrival. The white frame gives the picture a clear edge on the wall. The white finish keeps the pale tones soft and the painted field stays open against the wood line.

It sits on a bedroom wall near a lamp. From the bed you see the broad colour band first, and on the way out you notice the thin layer lines at the edge.
