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."

Always Part and Always Whole II - Abstract Acrylic on Paper
Located in Soquel, CA
Always Part and Always Whole II - Abstract Acrylic on Paper Soft pastels create this ethereal abstract, by Florida artist, Ronald Dennis Reams (American, b. 1950). Mat size: 16"H x 12"W Paper size: 9.88"H x 7.38"W Reams explores the energy of his art in a sculptural way, building layer upon layer, color upon color. This visceral interpretation aligns with Reams' intent to always paint in the moment, allowing the paint, the emotion, and the energy of the painting to direct what happens on the canvas. In the late nineties, Reams began putting vignettes of drawings and paintings together. He then built fifteen-foot panels of these fragments, creating the equivalent of abstract collage. These large-scale pieces reflected his search for a non-routine way of painting. This new media approach paved the way for the works that followed, as the artist carved out a distinct artistic style of his own. The artist began his formal education at Ringling School of Arts but credits his mentors - David Anderson, Edgar...
