Dave Frances
The Circle - Original Abstract on Paper

2000s

About the Item

The Circle - Original Abstract on Paper Vibrant composition by California artist Charles "Dave" Francis (American, 1951-2018). Layers of yellow, green, blue and pink blend and overlap to create depth and movement. Shades of black and purple take up the background to add to the contrast in the composition. Acquired with a collection of the artist's work. Presented in a white mat. Mat: 24"H x 20"W Paper: 18 1/2"H x 14" 3/4"W Image: 18 1/4"H x 13 1/2"W Charles David "Dave" Francis (American, 1951-2018) was an artist from Santa Cruz, California. He worked in acrylic and stained glass, specifically because the two methods are so dissimilar: "My paintings are very loose and expressive while my stained glass is structured and very much "within the lines". Painting is an exploration and discovery process. I put paint down in many layers until I produce an image I find exciting. In contrast, my stained glass requires a lot of planning and very exacting execution."
