About the Item

Calima II [2021] Please note that insitu images are purely an indication of how a piece may look The Calima is a hot East wind that originates in Africa and sweeps effortlessly across the Atlantic Ocean toward the black, volcanic isles of the Canaries. In this series land, sea and sky converge to create a dazzling panorama. Clare Millen, Artist, Painter is available with Wychwood Art. To begin a painting is to embark upon a journey into the unknown, the final destination is perceived but rarely in focus before I start. Memory, experience and intuition guide me along a solitary creative path, strewn with twists and turns, to arrive at a place often unexpected, yet always inherently familiar. Inspired by a trilogy of the elements - land, sky and sea - my paintings are abstract visions and amalgamations of memories, moods and feelings. They are nowhere yet everywhere. Places that resonate within us all. I work in layers, building, scraping and scoring surfaces to expose the history of colour and surface I have laid down. I am led by what is revealed and work intuitively until I feel the piece is complete. This process of laying colour down in a chance way is thrilling but also exasperating at times. Many hours and many layers of paint can either fly or die in front of my eyes. I'm often defeated and have to walk away. However when a painting does work it is a deeply satisfying feeling - one that compels me to repeat the process again and again. I have exhibited my work both nationally and internationally and I have been an active member of Cambridge Open Studios for nearly two decades. I currently divide my time between my own studio practice, teaching and lecturing in Cambridge and training other art teachers working overseas for Cambridge University. original Acrylic on canvas Image size: H:50 cm x W:70 cm Complete Size of Unframed Work: H:50 cm x W:70 cm x D:1.5cm Sold Unframed

"Sunrise" Minimalist Abstract Expressionist Contemporary Landscape by Zion Mor
Located in Carmel, CA
"Sunrise," a stunning contemporary abstract landscape by Zion, captures the essence of minimalism within a vibrant color palette of red, yellow, and white. Sized perfectly to command attention, this piece embodies Zion's unique architectural approach to art. Every line, meticulously applied, holds its own weight and contributes to the painting's overall balance and harmony. At the core of this technical masterpiece lies a carefully executed play between what is articulated and what is left unsaid. The powerful, vibrant black linework accentuates the rich hues of red and yellow, drawing the viewer into its intricate depths. Yet it is the untouched canvas that lends the work its sense of depth and dimension, allowing the spectator to complete the narrative in their own imagination. "Zion Mor...

Located in Carmel, CA
The Tree - Cityscape Painting - Urban Landscape Art "Zion Mor's style is unmistakable and to use that perhaps overused word original. His approach is wholly abstract with curious hints of the visible world. He is interested in the abstract quality of line, color, composition and scale. He speaks of a kind of mathematical and scientific approach, in measuring intuitively and consciously the weight, value and workability of certain combinations." --The Jerusalem Post. The painting comes with a certificate of authenticity and a letter of appraisal. 'The Tree ', acrylic on canvas. Represented by American Art Gallery...
