"Elements 3030" Abstract Mixed Media Layered Composition on Baltic Birch Panel

By Christie Owen

Located in New York, NY

This piece Owen depicts an abstract composition with the use of mixed media and bold patterns producing work which is visually textured and rich with layers and is a part of the artist's "Elements" series which creates intricate geometric minimalistic compositions.

They involve layer after layer of materials, including tar, oil paint and acrylic, with some taken away and traces left of other marks. The lines of color in this one reminded me of some sort of electronic or cosmic pulsation or signal in the murk of the negative space." Beautifully float-framed and ready to hang. Work of G.
