Sardines Berry Red by Alice Straker Size:S - 29.7 x 42cm (A3) a modern artist engaging withSardines Berry Red swaps the warm orange ground for a deep, saturated berry tone that shifts the whole mood of the image richer, more dramatic, closer to dusk than afternoon. Alice Straker arranges the sardines with the same casual confidence found in her wider work, but the cooler undertone of the background gives the silver fish an almost jewel like quality against the dark field. It is the same subject seen through a different emotional register.
