Original artwork description:

***International shipping please contact me by Artfinder prior to purchase so I can check on shipping cost. With canvas paintings of this size shipping is high. Shipping will roughly be $85.00 to $95.00 for this size of canvas. I do not roll my canvases due to the layering process I create. All the main shipping carriers charge roughly the same International price. I do not like using 3rd party carriers for several reasons...one being it can take longer through Customs for delivery. I use UPS for International shipping. I will do my best to give the best shipping charge since you will be having an additional charge with Customs/duty/taxes. I am guest-a-mating there will be an additional 20% charge from Customs.

***U.S.A. shipping $10.00 dollars vie UPS Ground.

April 2019 (Unframed) Textured Abstract Acrylic Painting. Use of Gallery Wrapped Cotton Canvas 9 x 12 x 1.5. (9 Layers) I like building my canvases with layers of paint. There is a richness by doing this for this painting and many of the paintings I paint. Use of palette knives to blend the colors & patterns. The 3 top layers have Gold, White, Ochre, Silver, Orange, and Yellow. I have created and focused on a Orange/Red Splash for the eye. I have layers of primer giving the canvas a stronger feeling. There are 2 Vertical hangings on the backside and 2 Horizontal hangings on the backside. Felt pads on 4 corners to protect the wall. Golden Professional Archival Gloss Varnish Spray has been applied to protect the painting. Certificate of Authenticity included 1/1.

Lighting will be important for this painting or any other painting to bring out the brilliance of the colors. Overhead lighting/Spot Lighting/and/Indirect Lighting from a window are the best forms of lighting. If you do not have the proper lighting-this painting or any painting can look dull. Also, be aware of Wall/Paint colors with paintings. Some darker wall colors can make a painting look dull or not interesting. So, be aware when you purchase a painting and the placing of the painting. Always play around with lighting and wall colors for paintings.

Note: I base my pricing on amount of Time, Art Supplies used, Amount of paint used, and Artfinder's % which is important since they are promoting my artwork.

Materials used:

Professional Arcylics applied with Palette Knives & Brushes. Painted on Gallery Wrapped Cotton Canvas. Coated with Golden Professional Gloss Varnish.
