Shannon Plourde's The Gathering, Small

The Gathering, Small by Shannon Plourde for John Richard arrests the eye with the quiet authority of a work that knows exactly what it is — framed canvas given presence through a champagne-finished wood surround that warms without competing. At its intimate scale, the composition invites closer looking, the kind of sustained attention that transforms a wall into a considered moment rather than a decorated one. It is the rare piece that anchors a room without dominating it, equally at home above a console in an entry hall or as the singular focus of a more contemplative sitting space.
