Price History
Description
Diagrammatic broom-like brush strokes on a disrupted, under-sketched field of oranges and earthy reds. The artist uses a mix of varnish, dry pastel and modelling paste for this piece, combining shades of pale magenta and printemps yellow to create an original, abstract artwork. He uses scissors and shears to create straight marks on the canvas. About the artist A Chelsea School of Art alumni, Kevin Jackson is based in London, with some of his work displayed in the city's prestigious British Museum. The artist often creates mixed-media abstract pieces as a way to analyse the place humans have in an increasingly virtual world.
Our Stylist Says
I love this piece because of its bold, abstract simplicity that can truly elevate a variety of interiors. It works particularly well in contemporary or minimalist spaces, where its clean lines and muted colour palette can add just the right touch of visual interest without overwhelming. When styling around this work, consider pairing it with neutral tones or soft textures to let it stand out, or hang it above a statement piece like a sofa or sideboard to create a focal point. Practical tip: ensure the artwork is hung at eye level for maximum impact, and consider incorporating subtle hints of colour from the piece in nearby accessories or textiles to create a cohesive look.

This led to the birth of Soho Home in 2016 with their Barwell crystal glassware. Fast forward, the brand has expanded beyond just a few staples, encompassing a wide array of interior items ranging from furniture and tableware to home fragrances and textiles.
