Butte — Fine Art

Butte - 1967 draws on the post war abstract style Norman Bluhm practiced. Broad painted shapes sit on the sheet with soft transitions between them. The image keeps a quiet rhythm without sharp lines. You can see the painted surface as a layered field of tone.

The fine art frame comes in white, wood, dark wood and black. A white frame leaves the painted forms open and unbroken at the edge. A wood frame gives the sheet a warmer border that sits close to the paint. A black frame puts a firm line around the shapes.

In a kitchen, the painted forms read from the worktop as steady blocks of tone. The frame edge settles the picture against the tiles. The soft paint shifts stay visible when the morning light moves across the room.
