$2,061.73
Original artwork description
A push and pull technique was used here to create layers of a peeling paint effect, like a Venetian wall or ancient door, resulting in an image which appears almost like an old map (thus the title). In places, the layers have been peeled all the way back to the first pass of blue paint. Subsequent layers include coral, warm browns and a buff final layer. The texture is raw and unpolished, unlike some of the artist's other paintings, this work is more contemporary.
