About the Item

Artist Comments
Blue Timbre is part of Karen Hansen's atmospheric Etherea series. She describes the work as having lost and found edges. "Its endless shades of blue appear and glow and then dissipate as the main event moves across the piece," says Karen. "Do we ever see clearly?"


About the Artist
Karen’s abstract paintings are best described as an exploration in color. Often monochromatic, her work is a meditative and serene improvisation in the movement and depth of paint. Whether executed in earthy shades or vibrant tones, each painting evokes a different mood for the viewer’s contemplation. Karen’s body of work gives a gentle nod to the Color Field movement of the 20th Century, grounding her portfolio solidly within the evolving story of contemporary art.

The challenge I posed for myself with this painting was to abstract the image as much as I could and still have it read as a traditional landscape.

Blue Heaven, Abstract Painting
By DL Watson
Located in San Francisco, CA

Artist Comments
Painted while listening to Blues music, artist DL Watson created this radiant abstract using various tools to apply the paint. "The color palette is inspired by the waters of the Atlantic Ocean, close to my home in South Florida," says DL.


About the Artist
DL Watson creates semi-abstract paintings with floral and botanical references. Splitting her time between Florida and Oregon, she finds inspiration in the patterns that repeat themselves throughout the natural world. While her paintings are often grounded in her own childhood memories and past experiences, they evoke a beauty that is universal in their natural subject matter. She creates interest and intrigue through the color and movement that she uses to balance her composition.

Located in Lake Worth Beach, FL
Abstract Composition In Blue Large Oil Painting Artist signed, dated verso. Peter Kuckei 1938 born in Husum, Holstein Germany. 1960-1961 studied at the State Academy of Fine Arts, Bremen 1961-1963 studied at the State Academy of Fine Arts, Stuttgart, under Heinrich Wildeman 1986-1987 professorship at the State Academy of Fine Arts, Stuttgart 1993-2010 studios in San Francisco, California and Miami, Florida since 1963 lives and works in Berlin and Beckmannsfeld/Butjadingen.
