About the Artwork

A thick hardback lies open on a plain tabletop, its pages curling a little at the corners, with a pair of round wire reading glasses folded across the spread. Kurt Ellingson built the whole scene with a palette knife, laying down slabs of cream, sand and ochre so every page edge and tabletop plank catches the light. This books canvas art feels like the moment someone just stepped away to refill their tea.

Behind the book, the wall breaks into soft blocks of dusty blue, coral and pale peach. It's an easy pick if you've been hunting for orange and pink wall art that still reads calm, and the teal edge of the book cover ties the cool and warm tones together. There's no lettering anywhere, just paint, texture and a quiet still life.

This is book wall art for the person who always has a novel on the nightstand and a spare pair of readers in every room. It makes a thoughtful gift for a book lover, a retiring teacher or anyone who runs a book club out of their living room.

Hang this canvas wall art above an armchair as reading corner decor, in a study as home library decor, or near the shelves in a classroom library. It also works in a hallway or office where you want something warm and bookish without spelling it out.

Saturday market, downtown: a woman once held one of my lake paintings up to the sun and said it looked left out in the rain on purpose. Then she bought it. I think of her when I scrape the oil back. Coeur d'Alene in October looks exactly like that, wet light on everything, and now I know somebody else has seen it too.
