Marie-Eve Champagne

Diving In - Amber Rush, Abstract Painting

2020

Artist Comments
Part of a series of modern abstract paintings exploring the captivating power of color and its modulations. "Playing with an extended notion of gradient, the subtle ; yet not invisible ; transition between hues is accentuated by soft textures obtained through an additive/subtractive technique with watery pigments," explains artist Marie-Eve Champagne. "Although very formal in approach, this series is also about tenderness and carefulness, shown here through soft ensembles with elusive color variations."

About the Artist
Southern California transplant Marie-Eve is heavily influenced by the region’s natural environment and beauty. She works from a studio inside her San Diego home where she enjoys looking out the window to draw inspiration from the sunlight’s effect on the landscape. Marie-Eve’s work occupies a unique space at the intersection of fine art and stylized modern design, utilizing both representational and abstracted subjects. She juxtaposes organic forms with clean planes, thick outlines, and blocks of color that delight the eye. Using limited but carefully selected color palettes, Marie-Eve joyfully articulates concepts and elements of the natural world through a clean, modernist aesthetic.
