Thirds....Modern Contemporary Abstract Painting by Elizabeth Chapman



'Thirds'
Acrylic on 30" x 40" x 1.5" gallery canvas
If interested in this painting contact me: Elizabeth


I been VERY busy this week with our new daytime job babysitting our grand daughter Penelope.  The large canvases and paints arrived this week (pretty exciting!)... I've been pretty inspired and actually getting up early and I do mean early to paint. (4:00 a.m) I completed this earth tone painting this week and "Curtain Call" another one for the theatrical series.  If you spend some time looking at 'Thirds' you will see the vertical sections of thirds which are the most obvious, but upon closer observation you can see a foreground with shapes that appear as buildings, a middle ground of hills going into the distant sun lit sky. 


Here we are shopping with our grand daughter Penelope!
Yes.. we are having a great time together..

Quadri Four... Modern Contemporary Earth Tone Abstract Painting Elizabeth Chapman

Quadri Four
Acrylic on 12" x 12" canvas panel
Available for purchase from my Web Gallery


This is the last painting of the quadri's.... I am sure I will be back to visiting this color palette again.  I also have a few larger ones (that I absolutely love!)  done in this earth tone palette that will be posted soon.  These have all reminded me of my very first larger abstract I did several years ago.  "Passages" hangs above our couch in the living room and my husband has never allowed me to sell it.  It is his very favorite painting of mine.  As I gained my confidence,  I began following my instincts and playing with color... to the point of all out color!!  I love color... but  I have found that it can become too much at times and then a break is needed. A cleaning of the palette, so to speak.  Working in the earth tone series gives me that break.  I say all this in case your wondering... why the change?  If you have followed my work I am sure you have noticed the randomness.  I also enjoy painting with a palette knife. I love playing, experimenting and living in the creative realm.  Will I ever have a signature style? ... I am beginning to think...maybe not, but I love painting and hopefully that spirit will bring joy to others.
