Canvas, paper and care

The canvas is a poly-cotton blend, hand-stretched over a 1.25 in pine frame with hanging hardware attached. The painting continues around the edges (a mirrored wrap), so the whole image stays on the front.

Framed prints use 189 gsm museum-grade matte paper behind a clear acrylic front, in a solid wood frame 0.75 in deep. Keep both out of direct sun and wipe with a dry cloth.

Every painting is printed for you, so we cannot take back a change of mind, but anything damaged, misprinted or lost is replaced or refunded. Returns and damage

About the painting

About Gold Above the Circle

A woman with a closely shaved head and small gold earrings stands in Upward Salute (Urdhva Hastasana), her feet together and arms reaching overhead. A single black ensō circle rises behind her against warm cream rice paper, with small touches of gold catching the light.

Black ink moves between bold wet strokes and fine dry marks, while soft gray washes give the figure depth. Gold leaf adds a quiet point of light against the open paper space. This painting suits a meditation room, a quiet bedroom wall, or a calm reading corner.
