Pasiphae

This is abstract painting on high quality linen and custom made canvas. The style is defined by sculptural use of paint. It is 3-D, built-up mixture of many layers of thick gesso, paint, sand and other materials. I'm inspired by the structure of Jupiter's Moons. This one was inspired by the surface of the satellite called Pasiphae. It is a retrograde irregular moon of Jupiter. It was discovered in 1908 by Philibert Jacques Melotte and later named after the mythological Pasiphaë, wife of Minos and mother of the Minotaur from Greek legend. Finished with a glaze of UV varnish to protect against sunlight and dust damage. The colors may look a little bit different depending on the screen. This artwork is signed and dated on the back. A signed Certificate Of Authenticity will be included with the artwork. Edges are painted so it doesn't require any frame. Size: 120 H 100 W x 4 cm 47" x 36" x 1.6" Please feel free to contact me if you would like to ask any questions. __________________________________________________ © Pamela Rys
