About the Item

NOTICE GALLERY REDUCED PRICE SHIPPING COST. GALLERY WRAPPED. “It’s complicated.” This current popular phrase used by Gen X’ers and Millennials to describe a new love life paradigm on social media is the phrase most likely used by outside observers to describe my last 7 years of creativity. Gold leaf, bubbles, abstraction, landscapes and figurative pop stylings run amok in what must look like an out of control pendulum of discovery and stylistic makeovers. However, look more closely and it’s clear these series are strong lateral moves that are in no way confusing, but are stages in a rather intuitive evolution. My natural curiosity and artistic muse-following have clear origins in the earlier work, and inspire and develop naturally into the next series. I am constantly working and creating directly on the canvas and feel my innate knowledge of my physical work has recently surpassed my intellectual capacity to describe every step. Nature, as always, plays a huge influence in my vision, perhaps more literally now than before, but I am working from memory and intuition, as opposed to photographs or plein aire. Texture, line and composition play equally with loose color fields and soft S-curves. The new abstracts and abstract landscapes are, I’m sure, one more bridge to my next series. Other works available.

    Mixed Media, Oil

  • Crazy Golden
    By Petra Rös-Nickel
    Located in Los Angeles, CA
    Petra Rös-Nickel’s original paintings merge playful forms, bright colors, and architectural compositions in oil and mixed media on canvas. Her contemporary artworks contain rich textures and patterns, referencing popular European textile designs of the fifties and sixties. Rös-Nickel’s work translates the geometric and organic elements of an era that hoisted the flags of modernism and which, due to a trend to return to a rather retro style, has become topical once more. This 63-inch high by 10-inch wide contemporary oil painting is wired and ready to hang. This artwork is double wired and may be installed vertically or horizontally. The sides of this artwork are painted gold and it does not require framing. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable U.S. and global shipping available. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included. Petra was born 1963 in Wathlingen near Celle, Germany, and breaks completely new ground with her abstract forms of painting and expression. After studying fashion design at the professional school for clothing in Bremen, 1980, Petra Rös-Nickel changed her field of study to architecture in Eckernförde, 1982. She now lives in Hamburg, Germany. Preferring the creative aspects of the studies to the technical ones, the artist developed the basics of her painting, never denying the roots of applied design and soon ending in a refreshing, distinctive style. Petra Rös-Nickel experiments with form, along with the use of a technique that draws attention to the processes used in creating a painting. Essential is the color space presented in multiple layers that offers the beholder access to more profound color planes. These details, scratchings, and rubbings lead to various elements of tension, such as “patchwork” or harmonious-contemplative forms (“windows”) and “oscillating lines”. Rös-Nickel's modernist paintings develop an energetic impact on the space they‘re displayed in, conveying her joy of life and self-confidence. Her abstract geometric textured artworks have been exhibited and collected worldwide, including Germany, Belgium, USA, Canada, Singapore, and Hong Kong. Notable collectors include Chris Rock...
