In another Artroomsapp.com room, this is Prelude, the fourth in my Music To My Eyes series.
Prelude (2014) 17.5" x 13.5" | 44cm x 34cm. Mosaic gold in shades of orange and violet, porcelain, glass. Inspired by Rachmaninov's Prelude in G Major, Op. 32, No. 5. In a private collection.
The background is done in black Cinca, cut into strips and laid on its side. I really like the way it gives an undulating effect, which I think nicely represents the primary theme of the Rachmaninov prelude that inspired this work. With the orange gold, I was trying to express a secondary musical theme which is very lively and bubbly.
