All about the clean framing @_contomposloy #nicksmith #nicksmith_art #marilyn

Amazing what a difference a little space around a framed picture can make, mostly I’m not sure I like it... but on this occasion I think it works. I often find myself looking to the mathematical golden section to find a pleasing ratio but then someone just goes and gets a big old border like this and I find myself back at square one. #nowbreathe #jaws #nowsold #nicksmith #samuelowengallery #nicksmithart

A miniaturised reinterpretation of Whistlejacket by Stubbs measuring not much by not by much. This is the first piece I’ve needed a pair of tweezers to make. Each colour chip has a different race horse name written below the colour block... a magnifying glass is essential for full appreciation #nicksmith #nicksmithart #collageonpaper
