Sittin' Blues

Expressionistic Abstract

Acrylic on 12" x 16" canvas/unframed

This painting is the result of another blog that I have gotten involved with, in which a challenge is presented about every 2-3 weeks. The same photograph to work from is given to everyone. I decided that this time I would just go with more of an abstract expressionistic style rather than a realistic representation of the photo. I chose to work with the blues and a more gestural approach to perhaps capture more of the inner side of this man.

Tropical Roots by Elizabeth Chapman

Tropical Roots

Contemporary Modern Abstract

Acrylic on 24" x 36" canvas

The title for this painting is interesting and meaningful to me. These are five orchids that we have on our front windowsill that have bloomed this year all at the same time. Orchids are fascinating in the way in which they grow in the rain forests. They are one of my favorite flowers to paint. Also, having spent my childhood in Venezuela my roots are tropical, which might explain my love for color. If you are interested in this painting please contact me at elizabethchapman@artlover.com

Just Beyond by Elizabeth Chapman

We are so incredibly busy right now moving stuff, cleaning and painting walls. My studio is getting moved upstairs in a bedroom to make room for my youngest son and his family to live in our basement as we help them get through school. I'll post some pics of my new studio when we get done. This is another one from these smaller paintings. It measures 8" x 8" on 300 lb. paper and is ready to be framed. This one could be paired up with yesterday's Mi Casa (my home) or collected for a grouping display of miniature modern abstracts.

If your interested in any of these and would like to have them framed- let me know. It's a contemporary look that doesn't require matting or glass. I could have them framed and shipped for just a little extra. $40.00 s/h included elizabethchapman@artlover.com

No explanations to this one. I'll just leave it to your own imaginations! Painting measures 8" x 8" on 300lb. paper. This is a very thick and heavy watercolor paper a lot like a canvas panel. These acrylic paintings can be framed as is with a ready made frame or they could be matted and framed under glass.
