About the Item

This large abstract floral painting by Christine Averill-Green is an oil painting made on gallery-wrapped canvas. Pink and green panes of color are clustered together to create the subtle highlights and shadows of a floral arrangement, overtop of a geometric but textured background. The background colors are warm so as to connect with the central florals, but offer contrast as well with blues and greys of the left-hand side. The painting is wired and ready to hang. "A play on the shapes in nature; how they change and flow," the artist says of this piece. "Ambiguous forms set against a symmetrical background. I am in awe of the tremendous energy that I see everywhere in the world. I tried to celebrate that in this painting." Averill-Green has been exhibiting her artwork in galleries and museums in Upstate New York for over 40 years. She received her B.A. in Art and an M.S. in Art Education. Artists such as Richard Diebenkorn, Euan Eglow, Antonio Lopez Garcia, and her teachers Catherine Kehoe and Stanley Bielen have influenced Christine's artwork. "Most of my work is influenced by medieval frescoes (the gold and color combinations) and Asian art (the simplicity)," Christine says of her work. "Above all, in every single painting I do, I abide by the words of Claude Monet: "When you go out to paint, try to forget what objects you have before you, merely think here is a little square of blue, here an oblong of pink, here a streak of yellow and paint it just as it looks to you."
