Reflection A164497 with long links of ArgentiumThis abstract mixed media work evokes the sun reflecting off sand and water during a Florida Keys sunset. Painted first in acrylic shades of pink, orange, blue, and deep metallic gold, artist Christina Pritula then cut and pieced the canvas back together using bamboo cords, resulting in an organic, one of a kind work of art. Protected by UV varnish, it's signed on the back and ready to hang.
