Layers upon layers upon layers would describe how this painting came together. The darkest darks are  Golden's dioxazine purple.  I haven't done this in a while, but absolutely love mixing this purple with yellow to get those rich browns. Reminds me of coffee! Variations of the brown are created by adjusting the amount of yellow and white added for lightness.  Usually, I will work with a color palette like this more along the time Fall is approaching…not the beginning of Spring.  Maybe, just maybe someone has been waiting for this one…could that be you?

Actually, this one was begun in a gesturally fashion with graphite and then it was used to clean my palette knife and roller on.  Today, as I was working on some other paper paintings I picked it up and completed it.  It also has some pieces of the dried on acrylic paint that you peel off of tubes. Fun.

...expressionistic.

If you just got to have it....may be purchased from my web gallery: here.

"New Day" .... Modern Expressionistic Abstract Painting by Elizabeth Chapman

Acrylic on 5" x 7" canvas panel

Purchase by clicking here.


Well, I haven't posted in over a week due to an upper back muscle strain,  EXCRUCIATING..... OMG.   I have not yet picked up a paintbrush (this is a previous painting) and to be honest I even wondered if I would be painting again.   It amazes me how the abstract paintings really have a language of their own.  If you scroll down to the last post and read- "Asleep" was speaking about a time for healing.  The process is slow going, but going.... and just like the buds the desire to paint is VERY much there.... and that is a blessing!   It's a new day......

"Asleep" can be purchased from my web gallery by clicking here.

Snowed again last night!  Looking out the window at the bare white covered trees that seem to be asleep makes me think about times of healing and restoration.  As they are resting now, in another month or so.... they will begin to bud and bloom again.... bright and beautiful!  There is also a beauty to be found during this time of the season knowing that this is the way nature works.  Knowing that beneath the snow on the leafless trees there are buds ready to emerge when the time is right.  Realize that when things are not going like we think they should... still they are going..... For everything there is a season...

'The Crossing' Modern Expressionism Abstract Painting by Elizabeth Chapman

'The Crossing'

Modern Expressionism 

Acrylic on 30" x 40" (1.5) canvas

To purchase contact: Elizabeth

$400.00

I have been back and forth to the easel with more ideas for this painting and yet each time my hand just stops.  Presently, it is hanging in our living room (the rotating wall) where I have pondered it's completion.   ..... and I have decided that it is finished.  'The Crossing' is much like my other recent paintings 'Concentre' and 'Equipoise' only it has a softer, lighter feel.  Still working in the warmer earth tones yet with a punch of vivid color. The photograph does not show it, but this painting is loaded with actual texture as well. Another feature about this painting is that it can be hung either horizontally or vertically maintaining a strong composition.  To see more of my work visit my web gallery.

As I'm viewing and posting this work I'm amazed at how one mark can make or break it. This one was unknowingly developing into a strong composition when I added the white moving line as a last touch. I really like the flair that this last line added to the design of this painting. If your interested in the purchase of this painting you can e-mail me at elizabethchapman@artlover.com . $40.00 (unframed)

My show at Hawthorn's Gallery here in Springfield, Mo. has been extended for another month.
