What Can You See Beneath the Chaos?

Underneath all the chaos is pure love by Deb Chaney (16” x 16”)

I’m excited to say that my original abstract painting Underneath all the chaos is pure love has been sold.

Thank you to Mr. and Mrs. McNicoll for your enthusiasm and support by being collectors of my original artwork. I hope it brings as much joy to your space as it brought to me while creating the artwork.

About this painting

This abstract expressionist painting features a vibrant interplay of colors and textures, evoking a sense of energy and depth. Bold blues, greens, and oranges applied in broad, gestural strokes create a dynamic composition, with layers of color overlapping and interacting to create a sense of movement.

Stencils of sacred geometry of various sizes repeat through different layers across the canvas.

The painting's vibrant colour palette and energetic brushwork may reflect the joy and excitement of life's experiences. The abstract forms could represent the fluidity and ever-changing nature of life's journey. 

This captivating and thought-provoking painting invites viewers to explore their own interpretations of its meaning. Of course, the title, Underneath all the chaos is pure love, suggests a positive and optimistic outlook.

The original mixed media on canvas painting measures 16" x 16" x 1.5".

Little Drishti Series

This original abstract painting is part of my Little Drishti Series. These paintings are smaller pieces I use to practice and test techniques for a large-format series I am working on called the Drishti Paintings. The series will be presented in a solo exhibit called The Drishti Experience, which runs from November 2024 to January 2025. 

The small study pieces help me figure out the paintings’ colours, layers, and the interplay with sacred geometry flower of life symbol, so that when I get to the large paintings I have confidence and clarity for my creative approach.

The Delight of Words and Paint iii of iii by Deb Chaney (9” x 12”)

I’m delighted to share that my original abstract painting The Delight of Words and Paint iii of iii has been sold. 

I am so honoured and thrilled just knowing that it is now part of someone’s personal art collection.

About this painting

As you can probably tell by the title, this original artwork is part of a series. It is the third of 3 paintings, 2 of which have now been sold.

Working with collage, acrylic paint, and new stencils inspired this process. An array of shades of light and dark greens dominate this abstract painting. Along with photocopied cutouts, strips of pages have been cut from books and collaged around the canvas.

This contemporary art painting is part of my Little Gems Series. These pieces are inspired by practice and play. Particularly the interplay between collage words and paint. These pieces are my practice and are so much fun to create.

The original painting measures 9” x 12” and is a mixed media artwork of acrylics and collaged book pages on paper.

New Original Artwork "Yearning Warmth and Light"

Yearning Warmth and Light by Deb Chaney (9” x 12”)

This post is to announce and celebrate finishing a new abstract painting. Yearning Warmth and Light has recently become available for sale on Saatchi Art. You can currently still purchase the original painting or choose to order high-quality prints in a variety of sizes.

About This Painting

This is the second of the 3 spiritually-inspired paintings that I mentioned in last week’s post. recently created. The newly created small paintings are the result of my trying to figure out how to go about creating my new large-scale Drishti Painting Series. These small practice pieces have helped me work out how to integrate sacred geometry marks using textures and layers.

Whereas the first painting last week, Turn the Lights On, was a canvas full of vivid pinks, Yearning Warmth and Light is a verdurous palette of greens and blues. Viridescent layers of olive, emerald, and lime greens combine with aquamarine, light blues, and splashes of white.

Textured sacred geometry is repeated up and down and across the canvas with stencils of the Flower of Life, creating movement and depth, as though the canvas itself has been cut away.

The choice of gentle greens and blues is intended to create a sense of calm and be a nourishing, grounding influence.

This contemporary mixed-media painting is part of my Little Gems Series.

Original Painting "The Delight of Words and Paint i of iii" Sold

The Delight of Words and Paint i of iii By Deb Chaney (9” x 12”)

This post is to celebrate the recent sale of my original abstract painting, The Delight of Words and Paint i of iii. I would like to extend my gratitude and a big thank you to Suzanne of British Columbia, Canada.

Thank you, Suzanne, for becoming a collector of original artwork. I am sold glad that you found (and love!) this Little Gems painting. It has truly been a delight connecting with you and establishing this connection through art.

About This Painting

As you can tell by the title, this is part of a series of 3 paintings. They were created while I was teaching a 3-day mixed media abstract painting workshop at the Pacific Northwest Art School on Whidbey Island in Washington State. 

I was sharing with the class techniques for layering, incorporating elements of collage while giving attention to the use of space and applying marks with mindful repetition. I am always grateful for this class at this beautiful location which I hold so dear to my heart. 

The painting uses space to create a tranquil and ethereal sense of airy openness. Darker forest greens contrast with lighter, mossy greens and white. Small repetitive squares, concentric circles, and gesture marks create motion on top of typeset words collaged below.

As mentioned above, this abstract painting is included in my Little Gems Series, which are small paintings that I create to try new techniques and practice old ones. And, of course, for fun.
