"Windows"

Professional quality acrylic paints with a clear matte medium on the off-white and clear gloss medium over the colored circular "windows". Framed in Tasmania Oak with a clear matte varnish. Hanging wire is attached to the back so it is ready to be displayed by the collector easily. This painting began with a black base and dark cool colours that represented the rainy and cold winter morning I saw through my windows as I painted. As I developed the composition with layers of brushstrokes, the colours warmed as the rain slowed and the sunlight began to bring out some welcoming shades in the garden. The final layers of off white hide some of the chaos of an average day and reveal portions of the composition, or “windows” into individual thoughts and interpretations. This painting gives the viewer opportunities to circle through different ideas and journeys that they might see through each window.  The outside dimensions are 21 in x 25 in, or 53.34 cm x 63.5 cm.  The original painting is currently stretched, framed and available in Australia, ready to hang. If this is purchased outside of Australia, it can be taken off the stretcher frame and rolled for shipping in a tube without the frame at a lower price.
