This piece is ready to hang and does not need a frame

A particularly beautiful Beachwood surface was the starting point and inspiration for this piece.  The natural grain was so seductive that I felt I needed to work with it rather than obliterate it.   The 'netting' veiled across the surface allows glimpses of the wood.  The pallet is limited to only 4 colours (or mixtures of these) Vermillion, Naples Yellow Light, Indigo and Madder Lake - colours that can be found in early Renaissance painting.  The ebb and flow of the grain  is enhanced by the  colour allowing for the natural rhythms of the material to be celebrated.
