Mel Dewees
VULCAN

About the Item

Vulcan by artist Mel DeWees is a white and pink contemporary abstract mixed media on panel with encaustic that measures 24 x 24 and is priced at $1,200. Creating art is an essence, way of being. Since early childhood art was an escape from a troubling and humbling life. Through the loss of my parents, I came face to face with a world that was unforgiving and full of hardship. Within art I found a presence with which I could establish my voice. After numerous figure study classes, I found that drawing was pivotal for me as an artist to obtain my own sense of reason. The line became my visual voice. My paintings tend have a light backgrounds to encourage an association with sketchbooks. I like the idea of having a flat plane on which to work. This treatment of the painting as a sketch allows the line to play a pivotal role within the work. By thinking of my work as more of a sketch than a painting, I can view the body of work as a spontaneous visual diary.

  • Blue Moon Wisteria
    By Usha Shukla
    Located in Boston, MA
    "Artist Commentary: I create abstract paintings that distill the light, the intense colors, and the constant movement in nature. The final visual is pure, ethereal, and cosmic with no physical references. With a thought-out color palette and my unique process, I start on a journey of creation. It is always a balance of letting go and being in control. My head, heart, and hand become one and something pure and personal happens. Vapor-like shapes appear and disappear on the panel, leaving only traces of the initial layer, like the mere reverberation of a memory. Words that describe this piece: Dreamy, Dreamlike, Bold, dynamic, Abstract, Contemporary, meditative, nature, white, colorful, blue, green Artwork Details: - This is a hand painted, original painting - Created in California, USA - Professional grade oil paints on Wood...
