Terracotta and black cracked plaster wall decor

A slab of terracotta-orange plaster fills the lower half of the canvas, crazed all over with raised cracks like a dried riverbed, and above it a band of black and white speckle climbs toward a pale grey sky.

The speckled band has a jagged top edge that can be read as a snowy ridgeline or as breaking surf. Where orange meets speckle, a small white plaque sits proud of the surface, cracked in the same pattern as the clay below, as if a piece of ground had been lifted out and bleached. Between the cracks the orange is smooth and matte, so the relief lines do all the work.

TA#297 is an original textured geometric painting showing orange cracked-plaster field below a black-and-white speckled band with a white relief block, hand-painted in acrylic on canvas with a sculpted relief surface. It is painted to order in any size; the 14 standard sizes run from 20×24 in (51×61 cm) to 60×80 in (153×203 cm). Painting takes about 10 days and delivery 5–7 days by DHL, FedEx or UPS; the minimum order is one piece.

The orange carries across a large room, so place it where it is seen end-on: the far wall of a restaurant, the back of a bar, or the wall facing a shop entrance. It holds its own against dark slatted timber, polished concrete and bottle-green velvet, and a rough clay vessel on a bench beneath it repeats the cracked surface. A downlight from directly above sharpens every crack line across the orange field.

Specified for gallery & retail, restaurant & bar, lobby & reception and living room; it reads as bold and dramatic.

These share its palette, format and surface, so the three hang as a set: a run along a hotel corridor, a pair either side of a bed with this one between, or one per suite on the same floor.

Width × height. These are the sizes ordered most often; any other size is painted to order, with the composition redrawn to your proportions. A common rule: art about two-thirds the width of the sofa, bed or console beneath it.

Trade prices for TA#297 are quoted per order rather than listed, and come back within one business day. Four things set the figure:

Size

Price follows canvas area. The standard sizes run from 20×24 in to 60×80 in; any other size is quoted the same way.

Finish

Because the surface is not rolled, the choice is between stretched, ready to hang, and stretched in a frame; a frame costs more.

Surface

Sculpted relief is built up in layers with drying time between them, so it costs more than a flat painting of the same size.

Quantity

Volume pricing starts at 10 pieces: the same design for every room on a floor, each one painted individually, or a mix of works.
