Woven Furrows 2026 by Helen Boardman

Woven Furrows, 2026 by Helen Boardman Woven Furrows is an original acrylic and collage painting by Helen Boardman, created in 2026 for her Autumn Abstracts series. Its title suggests the rhythms of cultivated land, offering a starting point for exploring the work without tying it to a particular view or location. Working on board, Boardman combines acrylic paint with hand-painted and printed collage papers. This meeting of painting and paper gives the work a mixed-media character, connecting her landscape practice with a more abstract way of responding to the natural world. The painting grew from plein air sketches and walking notes gathered in spring 2026 and was completed in the studio that summer. Rather than documenting a single scene, it belongs to an approach shaped by time outdoors, recollection and a personal response to place. Framing and presentation At 30 × 30 cm, Woven Furrows is a compact square original that could sit comfortably on a smaller wall or alongside other works in a collection. A dark grey St Ives frame brings its overall dimensions to 46.5 × 46.5 × 3 cm. The painting is finished with professional UV satin varnish and wax and supplied with a signed Certificate of Authenticity.
