Multiples Chemins | 24" x 36"
About the Artwork
Multiples Chemins is a 24" × 36" acrylic on canvas painting by Ilinca Ghibu, presented in an artist frame.
In Multiples Chemins, a bouquet presses out from the left of the canvas in a rush of orange, crimson, pink, blue and lime green. Broad petals and dark stems overlap, then loosen into scattered dashes and drawn lines at the edges. The flowers fill much of the painting, yet Ghibu leaves room for the eye to move: a slim, pale strip of smaller pink blossoms interrupts the composition near the right, beyond which the grey ground opens again.
That change in pace is what makes the horizontal work so engaging. Bold, crowded colour gives way to delicate stems, handwriting and isolated marks, while small bright accents keep crossing the quieter spaces. The painting rewards both a view from across the room and a closer look at the quick shifts between painted and drawn forms.

Artwork Care
CARING FOR YOUR ARTWORK
Display
Hang artwork away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and air vents. UV exposure causes fading over time — UV-protective glazing is recommended for works on paper and photography. Avoid hanging artwork above fireplaces or in bathrooms where heat and humidity fluctuate.
Cleaning
Dust frames gently with a soft, dry cloth. Never use household cleaners, water, or solvents on the artwork surface. For oil paintings, a soft-bristle brush can be used lightly to remove surface dust. Professional cleaning is recommended for valuable or delicate pieces.
Temperature & Humidity
Maintain a stable environment — ideally 18–22°C (65–72°F) with 40–55% relative humidity. Rapid changes in temperature or humidity can cause warping, cracking, or flaking. In Alberta’s dry climate, a humidifier can help protect your collection during winter months.
Handling & Moving
Always handle artwork with clean, dry hands or cotton gloves. Carry framed works by the sides of the frame — never by the hanging wire. When transporting, wrap in acid-free tissue or soft blankets and keep upright. For valuable pieces, professional art handlers and custom crating are recommended.
Storage
Store artwork upright in a cool, dry, dark space. Use acid-free materials for wrapping. Never store artwork in attics, basements, or garages where temperature and humidity are uncontrolled.
Insurance
We recommend insuring your art collection. An up-to-date appraisal (every 2–3 years) ensures proper coverage. West End Gallery offers professional appraisal services — please enquire for details.
