Rubra captures warmth, movement and atmosphere through a richly layered field of deep burgundy and softened earth tones.

Set against a velvety red ground, gestures of white, charcoal, amber and muted blue emerge across the surface. The composition carries both depth and lightness, allowing movement to unfold naturally through the centre of the work. Rubra is derived from the Latin word meaning red, reflecting the rich tonal warmth that became central to the piece as it evolved.

Measuring 45 x 55cm, this original abstract artwork is framed in a chocolate timber float frame and painted with premium acrylic on canvas.

This piece comes beautifully gift-boxed with a Certificate of Authenticity and the story behind the artwork. Free shipping in Australia.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the specifications for Rubra?

Rubra measures 45cm wide by 55cm tall, framed. Lee paints each piece in acrylic on premium canvas, using 12oz cotton duck stretched over certified hardwood bars. Rubra sits within a chocolate timber float frame and carries a Krylon UV archival finish to protect its burgundy and amber tones from fading. Every work is signed on the front and back and includes a certificate of authenticity. For longevity, avoid hanging Rubra in direct sunlight or in a humid bathroom or laundry space.

Rubra ships free anywhere in Australia. Buyers located overseas should contact Lee J Morgan Art directly to arrange international shipping. Each artwork, including Rubra, is framed after purchase rather than held ready-framed in stock, so allow a two week turnaround before dispatch. Factor this framing period into your delivery expectations alongside standard courier times. Get in touch if you have a deadline and we will do our best to help.

Yes, you are welcome to view Rubra in person at the studio in northwestern Sydney. Appointments give you a chance to see the burgundy and amber tones up close and get a true sense of scale before committing. Photographs rarely capture the texture and depth of an original piece as well as seeing it directly. Contact Lee J Morgan Art to book a time that suits you, and we can also talk through framing and placement options while you visit.

At 45cm wide by 55cm tall, Rubra works well as a supporting piece rather than a sole focal point, suiting a hallway, reading nook or above a console table. Its burgundy ground and amber gestures pair naturally with warm timber furniture and soft ambient lighting. Rubra sits comfortably in bedrooms or smaller living spaces where a bolder, more saturated colour is welcome without overwhelming the room. It also works well grouped with one or two smaller pieces to build a considered gallery wall in a Japandi or contemporary interior.

Rubra's burgundy and amber tones sit well against warm timbers such as American oak, walnut or cherry, paired with brushed bronze or aged brass fittings. Charcoal or dark grey stone benchtops echo the charcoal gestures within the piece, while a herringbone timber floor in a mid brown tone adds warmth underfoot. Deep green velvet cushions or a burgundy linen throw pull the palette together, and warm brass picture lighting highlights the depth of colour in the canvas. Rubra also works alongside black metal shelving or a wrought iron console table for contrast.
