Connected By Joy — Fine Art

Connected By Joy - 1973 shows a wide field of thin colour spread across the sheet. Broad painted bands meet softer areas, and some edges bleed into the woven paper. Open space sits between the painted regions, leaving room for the eye to rest.

The fine art frame finishes in white, wood, dark wood or black, and the frame gives this picture a clear edge on the wall. A black frame sets a hard line against the bleeding colour edges, while a white frame lets the painted bands sit without a strong border.

On a kitchen wall near the sink, the broad painted areas read as calm colour at a distance. Near the doorway, the thinner edges and the open gaps show more clearly, and the simple frame edge holds the sheet in place.
