Work on Paper by Mark Westervelt: Albino Seahorse, Framed

A tiny striped landscape holds a slim standing figure inside a wide dark frame.

This work on paper is by Albino Seahorse, and is ca. 2010. It is paint & mixed media on paper. His paint skins are made by painting on plastic and peeling the sheet off, so the side against the plastic is glossy and the side exposed to air is matte. A small collage of horizontal bands in olive, cream and pink with a thin pale figure standing upright at the center. It sits behind a wide cream mat in a black frame with a thin pale-toned inner liner. It is 19 inches wide, 1 deep and 22 high.

Very small, very quiet, and extremely well framed.
