Where I bought cashew nuts. (2014)Acrylic painting by Gordon T.
78.74 x 53.34cm (unframed)
£625.99
Original artwork description
Acrylic colour on handmade Thai mulberry paper (kada sa), deckled edge, 21 x 31 in., 55 x 77 cm.
Crowds in Bangkok are a constant inspiration for me. It’s the body language first, then the visible culture around the subject. This scene is from my wanderings in the market lanes of Pratunam area. And I did buy cashew nuts from this person.
The paper I use is a traditional mulberry paper handmade in Thailand. The paper is a thick parchment paper, strong yet pliable. I have the paper made to this size to get the deckled edges which adds to the textural effect.
The close up pictures are to get a better feel for the texture and brush strokes of the painting.
About framing this painting.
When framing bear in mind to not cover up the deckled edges. This is one of the specialties of the painting, one of its charms. It is best displayed framed with a cut mat board around the painting so as not to cover the edges, thereby putting some space between the art and the glass and bringing depth to the framed art. It can also be framed simply with backing board and pressed with glass over the front without causing damage.
