"The Light Down the Hall" The subject matter in this oil is the light to the right down the hall plus the  doorway. I applied gesso and other material onto the canvas to get  this rough texture look.

I really love the simple composition and feel. oil  over crinkled paper  on canvas     36" x  48" Murals Fantastic is the online portfolio for San Diego, California artist & muralist Rik Erickson.
