Orchestrate... Modern Contemporary Abstract Painting by Missouri Artist Elizabeth Chapman


Acrylic on 24" x 36" x 1.5" gallery canvas

or contact me, Elizabeth

A mixture of working with the  earth tone palette and a splash of color!  This one has a lot of subtle details that made it exciting to work with.  These can be seen by clicking on the image to get a larger, close up view.  I worked on this one over a period of many days, layering, staring at it, then adding more layers or lines, staring, adding.... Felt it was done, photographed it and posted it to my web gallery.  Then I found that the bottom left hand corner kept bothering me every time I looked at it,  sooo... went back in and added a few more layers and lines in order to feel a good balance and.... here it is.. Orchestrated for you!!
