Charles David Francis
"Garden Series #4" - Abstract Expressionist Composition in Acrylic on Canvas

2017

About the Item

"Garden Series #4" - Abstract Expressionist Composition in Acrylic on Canvas Vibrant and expressive composition by California artist Charles "Dave" Francis (American, 1951-2018). The artist has created a bright garden scene through the use of abstract splashes, drips, and splatter. Yellow, red, and magenta flowers intermingle against a blue and green background. Flowing yellow creeps in from the upper corner, implying full sunlight falling on the scene. Signed "Dave Francis 2017 on verso with tag titled "Garden Series #4", acquired with a collection of the artist's work. No frame. Canvas size: 28"H x 22"W x .5"D, or 22"H x 28"W if hung horizontally. 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."

Beautiful Chaos #7, Lucy Moore, Abstract Landscape Painting, Floral Art
By Lucy Moore
Located in Deddington, GB
Beautiful Chaos #7 by Lucy Moore [2022] Beautiful Chaos #7 - An Original semi-abstract painting by Lucy Moore. Using her signature string grass technique Lucy has created a semi-abstract twist to her classic meadow paintings. Colourful pastels flowers beneath a sunlit skyline. This piece would brighten any home or office, bring a little of the outside inside. 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:76 cm x W:76 cm Complete Size of Unframed Work: H:76 cm x W:76 cm x D:1.5cm 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)
