About the Item
Greens (Abstract Painting)
Acrylic on acrylic panel - Unframed
Each panel is 9 inches square. They hang from a cleat system which makes them appear to “float” off the wall .25 of an inch.
In this ongoing series, Ramsay explores reversed underpainting, a technique she created. Each panel’s underpainting (first sheer layer of color) is one of the colors of the other panels. This is a form of keying, a painters term referring to harmonising colors within a painting. It creates a subtle sense of the panels visually belonging to each other.

Debra Ramsay
Debra Ramsay is an American abstract artist who creates acrylic paintings, drawings and installations that explore the conceptual interplay between color, line and surface. She lives and works in New York City. Ramsay graduated from the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn in 1984 then earned her BA from Brooklyn College in 1986. She also attended Oregon State University in Corvallis, OR, graduating in 1999. She's been awarded residencies with the Albers Foundation and The Golden Family Foundation, both in New York, and the BAU Institute in Otranto, Italy. Ramsay's work has been extensively exhibited in numerous solo and group shows across the United States, as well as in Italy, Thailand and Germany. She has been written about and interviewed in the press. Ramsay's work is included in numerous private, corporate and institutional collections, including those of Alliance Bernstein, New York and the Ritz Carlton, Dubai. Ramsay's technique begins with an idea. From there she chooses the appropriate medium and method with which to realize her concept. Much of her work is painted with acrylic paint applied to polyester film, paper or museum board. Ramsay's process engages a systematic, mathematical approach heavily influenced by color. She interacts with nature, documents the shifting colors of elements of the natural environment, such as landscapes, fruit, leaves and trees. Often, she returns to the same exact spot at different periods throughout the year, documenting the shifting colors over time. Back in the studio, she then feeds the colors she documents into a computer program, analyzing them and using the analyses to mix paint. The resulting work presents an abstraction of specific spaces or objects in time, informed by mathematics and explored through geometry and color.
