"Dream Abstraction #64" - abstract painting - colorful work on paper

2023

About the Item

This work on paper is a colorful abstract featuring hues of blue, red, purple and black. It is framed without glass in a natural wood frame measuring 27 by 34 inches. The artwork and mat are coated and varnished. Eilis Crean is inspired by the works of Honoré-Victorin Daumier, Evie Hone, Patrick Pye, Milton Avery, William Kentridge, Joan Snyder, Jennifer Bartlett, Judy Pfaff and Sarah Sze. Atlanta-based Artist, Eilis Crean’s latest body of work, “Dream Abstractions,” reimages commonplace encounters. Thinking of her artwork as theater sets, she makes variations from core scenes that are recomposed, using referenced abstracted shapes as morphable & moveable props. Color & tone are used as a stage lighting director might, to vary mood & imply time. This process of reduction, a paring away of original details, editing by elimination, becomes an analogy for a type of conscious dream state in which the sense of sight is isolated - disassociated from memory & anticipation. Eilis holds an MFA from Georgia State University & a Certificate in Teaching & a Fine Art diploma from the National College of Art & Design, Dublin, Ireland. Her work is held in public and private collections including the Irish State Collection, Latvian State Collection, French State Collection, LaGrange Art Museum & King & Spalding.

  • Abstract 64 - Contemporary Abstract Painting w/ Stunning Brushstrokes (Black)
    By Helen Bellaver
    Located in Gilroy, CA
    "Abstract 64," is a contemporary Abstract painting by San Jose-based artist Helen Bellaver. In this work, Helen layers a medium onto her canvas or paper to create a subtle texture, which she then layers her acrylic paint on to create depth and detail. This work creates a sense of energy as the eye is drawn to the rich black and relieved by golden tones of cream as it intertwines itself into the foreground of the painting. Helen Bellaver is an abstract expressionist living in the San Francisco Bay Area, where she has been practicing for the last thirty years. Her work has evolved into expressions of black. To the artist, black brings her a sense of calm and is at the forefront of her works. She uses it as her foreground, and in the background, she has layers of creams, whites, blues, ochres, browns, reds, etc. The mark-making in her works comes directly from the genre of Abstract Expressionism...
