Phenomena Waiting Gables — Fine Art

The painted field in Phenomena Waiting Gables - 1965 holds soft colour bands that drift left to right across the page. The wash moves in slow layers, with thin lighter lines cutting through the darker tones. A reader in the work sees the paint settle into broad areas before it thins out at the ends.

You get the fine art print with a hanger already on the back. The print is made on matte paper, so the greys and pale tones stay flat under a lamp and there is no shine on the surface.

It works on a stairwell wall where the steps turn past the picture. From the landing you notice the slow shift of tone from one band to the next, and the thin lines read as small breaks in the paint rather than as separate marks.
