Look at the upper center first. A red glass shape sits there with a crisp, wet-looking edge, a speckled interior and a few tiny bubbles. It looks lit from behind, and the colour seems to glow from inside it.

Everything around it softens. Amber, burgundy and cobalt drift past in slow bands and fall away into pale cream-yellow. The sharp red form holds your eye while the rest of the image dissolves.

What the eye finds, a little at a time

I'll let the image tell its own story. The first thing you see is the glow. Warm light seems to pass through the red and amber shapes, and bright highlights sit on the wet-looking edges and the small bubbles.

Then you see the movement. Swirled bands at left and rounded blobs at right drift diagonally from upper left to lower right. It's slow and molten, like colour that hasn't finished settling.

Then the small details. A fine golden speckle shows at lower left, and a dark crimson slab sits low in the center, below the red glass. Cool teal and cobalt shapes gather along the right edge. The glow stays warm because the blues are only there to balance it.

What you'll see in this piece

Where it belongs

The frame is horizontal and filled edge to edge with colour, so it suits wide wall spaces such as above a sofa, console, bed or desk, or in an entry or dining area. The saturated red and amber would stand out on a neutral or cream wall and become the room's focal colour.

The mood is warm, vivid and playful. It's colour for its own sake, and that is reason enough to hang it.

Questions before you choose

Will the colours look as vivid in person as they do on screen?

Screens, papers and finishes all affect how colour looks, so I can't promise an exact match. The piece is built on saturated red, amber and cobalt, and the 30-day money-back guarantee covers you if the print isn't right for your space.

Which size should I choose?

The listing shows the sizes and materials available. The format is horizontal, so it suits a wide wall. The single sharp focal point and soft blurred edges are the things to picture at your scale.

What if it doesn't suit my wall once it arrives?

Fine Art America offers a 30-day money-back guarantee. You can try the piece in your room and decide there.

Picture a neutral wall with this across it: the red glass glowing at upper center, amber and cobalt drifting slowly past it, and the cream-yellow background lighting the whole room.

If that's the colour you want in the room, go to the listing and choose your print.
