This work is a genuine original oil painting signed by the artist. It comes ready to hang, even without a frame as the edges are staple-free, painted black and the artwork can be proudly displayed as is. Even though many collectors prefer the modern look of the simple black edges of these contemporary paintings, they can also be nicely framed for a more traditional framed art look.

This work is from the series, "The Color Red", which explores the rich, vibrant and spectacular nature of the color red.

These abstract and non-objective oil paintings present a varying range of red tones, some bold and explosive, and some much more subtle. The main focus is usually on the relationship and lively interaction of red with other tones and colors. A feature in many of these abstract works are passages with shades of green, offering a heightened sense of drama and interest in the composition.

Shipping for this artwork is available to US and international destinations and comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee of the purchase price. For questions or comments about "Descent" or to commission a similar work, contact Curtis Verdun at www.GalerieVerdun.com
