Side of St. George — Fine Art

The title Side of St. George - 1968 leads the eye to a painted field where colour spreads in loose bands and thin lines move through softer washes.

Across the room the shapes hold together as a single field of colour. Up close the small shifts in tone and the fine pencil lines become clear. Paul Jenkins worked with poured and tilted paint, letting the fluid paint wash settle into broad colour band painting.

The matte fine art print keeps the light greys soft and the dark marks steady. A light frame on a dark wall lets the pale ground sit forward, while a wood frame beside wooden furniture ties the painted field to the room.
