The Inherited Antique Inkstand - Sue Roughton

Mixed Media (brass rubbings, acrylics, paper and gold leaf on stretched canvas)

102x165cm

Inherited Antique Inkstand is an exciting artwork that will look stunning in your home or office. Enjoy the warm, rich colour palette which looks superb in a range of interiors. The textured surface provides never-ending interest and allows the light to bounce off the canvas in a multitude of ways.

Sue says about the artwork, ‘this work explores heritage, untold stories, guardianship, and the bewilderment and perplexity of life as an outsider. I was also interested in the clash of aesthetic styles between the world of antiques and contemporary modern art.’

If you like artwork that stimulates the mind and soul, then this is the piece for you.
