"Tapestry" Acrylic - Canvas on Frame by Dally Splendadilo

910 x 450mm on reclaimed frame

The canvas bursts with a rhythmic, tapestry-like weave of blues and yellows in every imaginable shade. Deep indigos and navy blues flow like quiet rivers, tangled with rich sapphire and flashes of electric azure. Between them, yellows bloom — from soft, buttery pastels to fierce golds and vibrant sunbursts — creating a glowing contrast that feels both ancient and modern.

The brushstrokes are layered and textured, mimicking the intricate threads of woven fabric. Some areas are densely packed with color, almost embroidered with overlapping marks, while others breathe with open spaces, allowing the raw weave of the canvas to peek through like worn silk. The composition feels organic and flowing, but also deliberate, as if telling a story through patterns rather than images.

Hints of teal, mustard, and muted gray occasionally surface, giving depth and age to the tapestry illusion, like a cherished cloth faded from time and touch. The overall effect is rich, vibrant, and tactile — inviting the viewer to get lost in its woven sea of cool and warm tones.
