About the Item

Cosmic Splash - Abstract Expressionist Composition in Acrylic on Canvas Vibrant and expressive composition by California artist Charles "Dave" Francis (American, 1951-2018). Artist's stickers on verso. Unsigned, but acquired with a collection of the artist's work. No frame. Canvas size: 24"H x 30"W Charles David "Dave" Francis (American, 1951-2018) was an artist from Santa Cruz, California. He worked in acrylic and stained glass, specifically because the two methods are so dissimilar: "My paintings are very loose and expressive while my stained glass is structured and very much "within the lines". Painting is an exploration and discovery process. I put paint down in many layers until I produce an image I find exciting. In contrast, my stained glass requires a lot of planning and very exacting execution."

Twilight Flourish #10, Lucy Moore, Abstract Painting, Landscape painting
By Lucy Moore
Located in Deddington, GB
Twilight Flourish #10 by Lucy Moore [2022] Twilight Flourish #10 - An Original semi-abstract painting by Lucy Moore. Using my signature string grass technique I have created a semi-abstract twist to this midnight delight. Wychwood Art comments "We love Lucy Moore's original meadow paintings. They are full of colour and energy at affordable prices" Additional information: Original Acrylic on canvas Image size: H:60 cm x W:60 cm Complete Size of Unframed Work: H:60 cm x W:60 cm x D:1.9 cm Sold Unframed Please note that insitu images are purely an indication of how a piece may look. I have always enjoyed being creative but lacked the confidence to pursue a career as an artist, after many nudges from family and friends I decided to bite the bullet.I set out on my artists adventure in Feb 2014 I used my loft for a studio and spent every spare moment experimenting and creating. In Feb 2015 I signed up to several online galleries, every painting I sold boosted my confidence and I would spend hour daydreaming of becoming a full time artist. Since then I have come a long way and have been able to purchase my own studio, I now have a little sanctuary in my back garden.When I am not working as a part time book keeper, I can be found hidden away in my studio creating original artworks. I am inspired by the nature around me, from flourishing meadows to the crashing waves in the ocean, however I do like to add my own twist on things. I do love to work freely with abstract using colours and textures to guide me. For me Art is a necessity, I need to paint. The colours and images that swirl round my head daily I capture on canvas. I feel very privileged to have sold my work all over the world. My dream is to become a full time artist, With each painting I sell I take a step closer to achieving my goal. 13/08/2018 I took a leap of faith. Currently working as a full time artists. "If you give up on your dreams, what's left?" (Jim Carrey)
