Sky Blossom | 48" x 30"
About the Artwork
Sky Blossom is a 48" × 30" original oil painting on canvas by Steve R. Coffey.
Sky Blossom spreads curved strokes of colour across almost the entire height of the canvas, leaving a narrow, dark strip of land at the bottom. Deep plum and muted teal gather toward the upper left, while clearer blue opens at the upper right. Through the middle, pale blue, green and white passages form a loose diagonal toward the brighter lower sky.
Orange, pink and yellow accents become more concentrated near the horizon, where they contrast with the dark band beneath. Cloud forms remain loosely defined, their edges dissolving into neighbouring strokes rather than enclosing separate shapes. Thick white marks catch against thinner sweeps of colour, making the changing paint surface an essential part of the composition.

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.
