New Original Artwork "The Command Was Given"
/
The Command Was Given by Deb Chaney (11” x 15”)
This post is to celebrate one of my original abstract artworks becoming available for sale. The original is for sale online through Saatchi Art and so are high-quality prints in a variety of sizes. This painting, The Command Was Given, was among the paintings that I recently discovered, as I mentioned in last week’s post.
As noted last week, I found a few prints that I painted way back in 2019. The abstract paintings are all part of my Little Gems Series, although they’d never been documented and catalogued. Therefore, I promptly photographed them and made them available to share with you. This is the second of 3 paintings which, just like the previous one, is now being seen for the first time since I painted it 4 years ago!
About This Painting
My ongoing Little Gems Series is a collection of paintings that begin as practice pieces. I use them to hone my skills as well as explore and try out new techniques and ideas. Each painting in the series is bursting with the joy, love, and passion I feel in the studio. And all of that energy and positivity is infused in every piece of artwork – which becomes my gift to you!
This mixed media collage painting is slightly bigger than most of my Little Gems, which usually measure 9” x 12”. Just like the first piece in this trio of paintings, it measures 11” x 15” and is also inspired by collaging old books and the beautiful tissue paper used in dressmaking.
This painting has the same colour palette as the first painting, One of The Originals, although the ochre, yellow, and turquoise are more prominent. Pages cut and torn from old books are collaged with layers of acrylic paint, charcoal, gesso, and pastels. Gesture marks, scribbles, and geometric shapes encourage the viewer to explore every inch of the canvas. The typed pages are weathered and aged, creating a curiosity about the past.
