A Firework of Colours - in a Crystal

Remember the other painting about tourmalines? It is here. This is another one with completely different colours and different shapes. Tourmalines belong to the most variegated minerals. Take the complete colour wheel and you will have all potential hues and shades of the crystal.That's so fascinating with tourmalines.

This one has been painted in acrylic on cotton. You can hang it with or without an additional frame. Illuminated with the right light the colours of this painting start to glow...

Sitting in the Loggia in perfect Harmony...

Sounds like the beginning of a song - doesn't it?
But seriously - I am totally in love with this designer sofa because it somehow has panache. Imagine some nice music playing in the background, reading a magazine while waiting for someone... The adjacent room is the conservatory with lots of orchids and nice green plants - so you are just having a little break until you continue your tasks....
And btw - the painting on the wall is Tourmaline II, an acrylic painting and you can see the details here

Potentials of a Lounge - dipped in warm Colours

This acrylic painting Tourmaline II from the Minerals series is a little jewel because its colours start to glow with the right light. Placed on a wall like this one is just the perfect complement. And a modern designer chair like the one below is a great place to wait for someone...
