Bold blocks of navy blue and teal meet soft cream in this large abstract geometric wall art piece. It's made with a labor-intensive straw marquetry technique: individual strands of dyed straw are split, flattened, and laid onto a wood panel. While the overall shapes are crisp, the natural grain of the straw gives them an organic warmth. The result has a richly textured surface with a subtle shimmer that shifts with the light. It works on its own as a statement piece for a living room, entryway, or office, and can also be hung as a pair with Color Block 2.

If it speaks to you, I'd be glad to create something similar in the size and palette of your choosing. Learn more about Commissions or inquire directly.
Part of the Color Block Series — Built from bold, geometric color fields, this series strips the medium down to its essentials: hue, shape, and the way light catches the grain of the straw.
