Description from the seller

Sto N-14 — Abstract Expressionist Painting by Retne

A dynamic and immersive abstract composition created through energetic motion, layered splashes, and controlled chaos. Sto N-14 radiates vibrancy and movement, capturing the full intensity of Retne’s expressionist technique. The surface becomes a field of rhythm and colour, where dripping lines and expanding clusters form a complex visual structure — spontaneous yet distinctly orchestrated. A powerful statement piece for any contemporary interior.

Signed on the front and back. Certificate of Authenticity included and hand-signed by the artist – confirming originality and authorship.

Recommended stretcher frame: 100 × 145 cm

Canvas Edges & Composition
