Old Window by Catherine  Mansell  Image: Old Window is a  textured and abstract representation of window. Its edges are adorned with subtle, mixed media brushstrokes that incorporate shades of blue, green, and hints of orange. The use of these colors creates a harmonious yet dynamic composition. Enveloping the structure are vertical and horizontal wooden-like elements that add a striking three-dimensional quality to the piece. The background features a blend of cool tones, primarily blues and grays, which further enhance the textured feel throughout the artwork.

This piece captivates viewers with its intricate layers and depth, evoking a sense of history and human touch. The interplay between color and texture invites the audience to delve into its complexity and richness. The unique process involved in creating Old Window, which includes the use of encaustic over a fresco substrate combined with wood fragments, adds a distinctive quality that reflects a love for both tradition and innovation. Whether you are a lover of old structures or an appreciator of abstract art, this piece offers a contemplative experience that resonates with the essence of history and the tactile beauty of old surfaces.
