Title: Mid Century French Abstract Geometric Modernist Composition Signed: R Trameau (French School, Mid 20th Century) Medium: Gouache and acrylic on artist paper, unframed Size: 20 x 13.75 inches (height x width) Provenance: private collection Condition: Fair to good overall condition. Areas of paint loss and flaking throughout the surface, revealing underlying blue pigment. Edge wear and surface abrasions consistent with age. Structurally sound but would benefit from conservation. Description: A bold and architecturally structured mid century French abstract composition signed R Trameau. Executed in gouache or possibly acrylic on paper, the painting is constructed through sweeping curved bands of mustard yellow, olive green, teal and burnt umber intersecting with spherical geometric forms. The composition demonstrates clear Cubist and Constructivist influence, with layered arcs and structural colour blocking creating movement and spatial depth. The central circular motif anchors the composition, while the surrounding angular elements introduce rhythm and tension. Confident brushwork and visible directional strokes reinforce the dynamic modernist aesthetic. Areas of paint loss expose earlier blue pigment beneath, adding texture and a raw expressive quality typical of mid century studio experimentation. This work would appeal to collectors of French modernist abstraction, geometric mid century painting...

Large abstract geometric painting with intricate line work in pencil and gouache on a bright yellow background "Specifically, Nowhere (Yellow)" made by Hudson Valley artist, Donise English, in 2022 gouache, acrylic, pencil, and colored pencil on paper, mounted on panel 48 x 48 inches unframed, 50 x 50 inches with a dark brown stained wood floater frame Surface is protected with four coats of an archival UV protective varnish Signed, verso Excellent condition and ready to hang This large abstract geometric painting was made by Hudson Valley based artist, Donise English, in 2022. The composition begins with a bright yellow background overlaid with intricate line work in graphite and colored pencil. Thousands of hand drawn lines serve as a backdrop for a bold geometric form in a dusty violet and dark gray gridded pattern that references "an imagined city grid", says the artist. The painting on paper is mounted to wood panel and complemented with a dark stained wood floater frame. It's in excellent condition and ready to hang as is. The surface is protected with four coats of an archival UV protective varnish. More about the work: Donise English emphasizes lines, grids, and fields of subtle color to evoke imagined places and invented structures. While precise lines and straight angles are often associated with themes in architecture and urban planning designs, English conveys a geometric motif guided by intuition rather than a ruler. Variations on grids retain flaws and unmistakable traces of the artists’ hand; her style of draftsmanship shies away from intellectualism and instead makes her compositions feel very personal. Each design is intensely intricate, incorporating gouache, acrylic, pen, graphite, ink and colored pencil. Artist Statement: My work is about the way visual diagrams present information that describes how something is made or the way it is. I am interested in drawing and collaging multiple layers of information that refer abstractly to maps, architectural drawings and blueprints or patterns and structures found in such things as roller coasters, power lines and fences. I use gouache and collaged paper in a series of layers that are a visual and ideological response to the previous layer to define my pictorial space. For each piece I create a set of rules to follow about the use of a limited palette, a grid format, opacity of paper and whether a piece may include curving lines or maintain a rectilinear structure.

This abstracted floral painting by Christine Averill-Green is made with oil paint and gouache on gallery-wrapped canvas. It features a light, pastel palette, with varying green and pink tones applied in light, almost washy layers. 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...
