About the Item
This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online.
"Balancing II" is original abstract painting by Annie King. Mixed media painting is a testament to abstract expressionism, where the artist's emotional landscape is communicated through a symphony of strokes and color. King continues her exploration of balance and motion, with forms that seem to be in a state of becoming, never fully resolved, which invites contemplation.
This piece, like its series counterpart, eschews representational forms in favor of an emotional and intuitive arrangement of shapes and lines. The viewer may perceive a sense of organized chaos, where each element is carefully placed to contribute to the overall equilibrium of the piece.
King employs a rich and varied palette, with a base of calming neutrals and pops of vibrant colors like cerulean blue, coral pink, and deep navy. The interplay of warm and cool tones creates a visual energy that is both inviting and enigmatic.
The painting is signed by the artist and is presented as ready for display, suggesting that it is suitably framed or prepared for hanging. It can be found for sale at Signet Contemporary Art in Chelsea and is also available for purchase online. This piece promises to be a conversation starter, offering a burst of creative energy to any space it inhabits.
Artist Bio:
Annie King is Contemporary Artist, based in Atlanta, GA Annie became a professional painter as well as teaching Art soon after graduating with a BFA from the University of Georgia. During this process Annie recognised how art was serving a therapeutic value. She developed a strong appreciation for how art making was connecting me to my Self: spiritually, emotionally, mentally, and physically while generating a sense of healing. Annie pursued a career in art therapy and earned a Masters in Art Therapy from Eastern Virginia Medical School.
“Inspired by the intrinsic value that art making promotes a healing power, my paintings play a significant role in the relationship that I pursue with Spirit, Self, and others. Reflections of emotions, thoughts, and actions serve as the muse to my process, and the insights they produce form the overall abstract composition. Focusing on the journey rather than the destination, my paintings are drawn from intuition and result from spontaneous yet thoughtful strokes and markings. I use mostly soft-bodied acrylic paints along with other mixed media to create a loose yet contained aesthetic. Bold, black forms are balanced with calm colors on neutral white backgrounds to achieve a sense of stability among the impulsive chaotic details. Layers and layers of paint are used. Information emerges, hides under other “coats,” and then reinvents itself. My paintings represent the constant struggle to maintain comfort and truth among the confusions of life. I paint for the process, and each work is always in progress until it ultimately awakes with a fulfilling realization.”

The Upside Down - Large Original Abstract Painting Ready to Hang
By Bruce Rubenstein
Located in Los Angeles, CA
The paintings of Bruce Rubenstein seamlessly marry sophistication with affordability. His original art merges the creative attitudes of the two distinct art hot spots of New York and Los Angeles. Rubenstein's work has a rigid edge and strong composition but maintains organic shapes and soft colors as well. His works have a character that brightens a space. His paintings pull from abstract expressionism and cubism but maintain a contemporary edge that strikes the viewer. His work seems collectively new and timeless at once.
This large affordable one-of-a-kind 40 inch square and 2.25 inch deep artwork is a mixed media composition on canvas. It is stretched, wired, and ready to hang. This large abstract painting is signed by the artist on the front and back of the artwork. The sides are painted and it does not require framing. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and worldwide shipping available. Provenance: Artplex Gallery. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included. While the artist has chosen to keep the price upon request, this captivating piece embodies both sophistication and exceptional value.
Bruce Rubenstein specializes in large-scale artworks, using huge canvases to tell his stories. Born and raised in New York, he moved to Los Angeles in 1985. His mixed media artworks defy categorization, blending abstract forms and organic shapes with subtle hints of figures and symbols. Adrien Brody and Mickey Rourke are among Rubenstein’s collectors.
Bruce Rubenstein’s artistic influences include artists from Joan Miró and Jean Arp to Gerhard Richter and Pablo Picasso. “He is an artist, and that means someone who cannot restrain the flow of ideas,” says author David Rodgers. “He is someone who they just burst out of, who cannot help but communicate, and who sees no reason to stop. He’s a man not limited by media to communicate the stories that he needs to (and must) tell, through any medium he feels necessary.”
His works are represented by Artplex Gallery Los Angeles and have been exhibited and collected worldwide, including exhibitions in Austria and Israel.
