Flowers Of The Deep — Fine Art

Flowers Of The Deep - 1984 by Ronnie Landfield shows broad painted areas set side by side on a plain ground. Warm tones meet cooler ones, so each band reads as a separate flat shape. The colour field approach keeps the painted marks loose and open.

The fine art print hangs on a plaster wall in a study above the desk. The paper is matte, so the paint bands keep their soft tone without a shine under the desk lamp. A light frame echoes the pale wall, while a dark frame steps into a darker room.

From the doorway you see the big colour blocks first, then walk closer to notice the brush marks at the edges. The work suits a reading corner with steady light.
