Golden Lattice | Original Mixed-Media Painting

Golden Lattice | Original Mixed-Media Painting

A gilded map drawn over a field of stamped gold.

Golden Lattice is a large, wide abstract painting built like a framed rectangle within a rectangle. At the center sits a field of dusty slate blue, softened with taupe-gray panels. Around it runs a clean white band, and beyond that is an outer border of stippled texture, so the whole canvas looks like a rug, a map, or a matted print.

The texture comes from a stamped pattern of small, overlapping rings, like bubble wrap pressed into wet paint. In the center field the rings are gold, cream, and white, with dense black clusters. They read as lichen, mineral veins, or ice crystals. In the outer border they thin into a soft scatter of gold, bronze, and gray over white, so the edges feel light and airy. Black stamped bands cross the center on the diagonal like worn bridge girders.

Over all of it, wide bands of flat metallic gold sweep diagonally across the canvas. They cross one another and run past the border, and the lowest ones bend into the frame like bars of light. Between them, razor-thin lines in black, white, and bronze fan out in every direction. They cross the gold, the blue, and the white, and they pull the whole thing into a lattice of intersecting angles.

The painting works on contrast: soft against sharp, stamped against flat, quiet blue against bright gold. It is architectural and ornamental together, and it rewards both a look from across the room and a long look up close.

At 30" × 48", it is a statement piece for a living room, a dining room, an entry, or a boardroom. The gold, slate, and white palette suits modern, art deco, and transitional interiors.

For collectors who love geometric abstraction with a touch of glamour.
