Amber Totem, Mirrored Orange Abstract

A tall abstract image built from a mirrored pattern. A glowing orange column of grainy, swirling shapes runs down the middle, framed by thin bands of teal, blue and purple. Wider panels of green, yellow, orange and grey with soft looping rings sit on either side.

A tall, strictly mirrored abstract whose glowing orange centre column reads at once as a totem or a winged figure, framed by cool teal, blue and violet edges and lime-green corners. Most orange abstracts are loose washes. This one has a firm vertical spine, grainy pitted texture against smooth glassy swirls, and colour that looks lit from behind. It suits someone with a narrow, tall wall and a warm palette in the room who wants one image that holds the eye without a busy scene. Liking the look is reason enough to want it.
