Golden Horizon

Two bands divide the canvas: above, a turquoise blue; below, ochres and golds. They meet in the middle, along an uneven line that suggests the sea reaching the sand. The acrylic paint holds small treated and cut stones, which give the surface grain and return the light in tiny points; the matt varnish brings everything together without taking away the relief.

The solid wood frame, painted in the same tones, extends the painting beyond the canvas. It is a landscape that was not planned — Karla lets the colours and textures lead her — and so each person can see in it their own beach, their own late afternoon, or something else entirely.
