About the Item

This artwork titled "Mini Burst Red" 2015 is a original mixed media on Aluminum by American artist Chris DeRubeis, b.1978. It is hand signed with pigment at the lower right corner. The artwork size is 10.5 x 11.5 inches, framed is 20.5 x 22 inches. Custom framed in a black frame, with plexiglass spacer. The artwork is in excellent condition, the frame has some minor scratches. Please note that the grey area on both side of the artwork are not a part of it, it is only the shadow of the lighting. About the artist: Chris DeRubeis paints on metal, mixing pigments and chemicals and incorporating power tools and natural elements such as fire, water, and freezing techniques. He calls his art “abstract sensualism,” in reference to the organic nature of his paintings. DeRubeis believes his work can alter the way people perceive contemporary art. Born in 1978, DeRubeis showed an early proclivity for drawing, which was quickly recognized by his family. At age 13, DeRubeis’ grandfather gave him his first airbrush, and after watching him use it, proclaimed he would be the artist his grandfather had always dreamed of becoming. School was viewed as a chore for DeRubeis, during math tests he drew rather than solving equations and sketched landscapes on blank sheets where teachers expected essays. He was scored by teachers for not concentrating on his studies and warned that he was on the wrong path; however, this criticism did not deter him from his goals. Undeterred, DeRubeis attended the Pasadena Art Center and the Associates in Art school in Sherman Oaks, California. To pay for his education, he painted custom Harleys and started a successful small business, all the while his professors tried to convince him to choose a more commercial style of art. DeRubeis continued his quest, searching for something greater and undiscovered, until one day while grinding base paint off a Harley gas tank in his workshop, he discovered something remarkably unique: With each pass of the grinding pad a new area of metal was exposed to the light, unveiling extraordinary patterns which “danced” off the tank, as if coming to life. DeRubeis began experimenting with different tools to manipulate the way light reacted with metallic surfaces, and introduced chemicals and pigments which created unique reactions. The art world initially reacted to his unique style with uncertainty, as galleries had never seen or sold art like it before. But it did not take long before his innovative style and techniques were embraced, and galleries across the country began inquiring about his work. In 2005, DeRubeis’ work was submitted and honored with two nominations by the First Annual Fine Art Awards, televised live from the MGM Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. Nominated in the “Mixed Media” and “New Movement” categories, he earned the MUSE Award in “New Movement.” DeRubeis, then only 27, dedicated his award to his grandfather who had passed away just months earlier. His artwork has appeared on the DIY and HGTV networks. In 2009, he signed with famed art publisher David Smith. In March 2010, DeRubeis opened his own signature gallery in Key West, Florida. Now, DeRubeis’ artwork is sold in galleries throughout the world.
