2012 Changes...ORIGINAL Contemporary Abstract Painting "Intrigue" by Elizabeth Chapman


Intrigue
Acrylic on 24" x 48" x 1.5" wrap canvas


All in the process.... and what a long one this one has been. This painting has gone through several phases beginning with the first one in January of 2012.  Click here to see that blog post.  I just was not totally satisfied with that painting. so in March it under went another change, to be seen here.  Still, it continued to tug on me and so I decided to make a few more adjustments .... and well ended up with a totally new painting!  But, it will keep the same title..."Intrigue".

And yes...it is finished!


Speaking of changes....we are very excited and happy for our daughter Emma who just became engaged the day after Christmas!!  I have opened a tab at the top of this page titled "Family" where you can read about and see pics of this special occasion.  Our kids got us iPads for Christmas and are encouraging us to join instant gram. So, there you go...a new years resolution to take and post more family photos.  My intention is to also share them with you!

Abstract Painting, ORIGINAL Art, "Golden Centre" Year End Special Contemporary Artist Elizabeth Chapman


'Golden Centre'
Acrylic on 36" x 36" x 1.5" wrap canvas

SOLD



To purchase contact me: elizabethchapman@artlover.com


Gold..... to hang on your wall!  Why not invest in and collect art?.... I personally am not a collector  as I work out of a small studio and so my artwork is hung on our walls in our house as a way of storing them.  But, I do spend a lot of time viewing other fine works of art online, loving and appreciating the uniqueness that every artist brings to a painting.  How can talents that are gifts and are being used to bring light, beauty and joy to others not increase in value?

Year End Special $500.00/NA Shipping Included

Email: elizabethchapman@artlover.com


Summertime..... Not really, but it sure is feeling like it here in the Ozarks of Missouri.  This painting has always reminded me of a hayfield.  I have lived the majority of my life here in the Ozarks and have never seen hay being raked and baled in December.  A mild winter? we'll see!!

This is a beautiful painting, light with lots of surface texture and 1.5" depth sides which are painted white.  Ready to hang!  No framing required.  I have also placed it on my Year End Special, click here.

Making room for new inspirations!!
