About the Item
“Disobedience” is a striking large-scale acrylic painting that turns restraint into a powerful act of defiance. Using a bold black-and-white palette and expansive negative space, Michelle Thomas creates a piece that is both minimal and emotionally charged — an invitation to pause, reflect, and confront the quiet power of resistance.
At 30″ W × 40″ H × 1.5″ D, this work commands attention through contrast, balance, and an arresting sense of stillness.
What Kind of Piece Is This?:
A contemporary abstract painting where each gesture feels intentional. Stark black shapes slice across luminous white, allowing unpainted space to carry as much weight as the brushstrokes themselves. The composition invites viewers to lean in, engaging with the tension between emptiness and presence.
What Makes It Special?:
Minimalist Strength: Demonstrates that rebellion can be quiet — yet uncompromisingly bold.
Pure Acrylic Medium: Layers of carefully applied acrylic create smooth fields of color and crisp edges for maximum visual impact.
Architectural Presence: Its square format and clean design make it an anchor piece for modern spaces.
Emotional Resonance: The title frames the work as a meditation on autonomy, choice, and the art of refusing to conform.

Off the Leash - black & white, minimalist, figurative abstract, ink on paper
By Lynne Fernie
Located in Bloomfield, ON
Three black brushstrokes representing ground and rapid dashes of black, drizzled and brushed form the profile of a dog, his leash flying upwards in this work on paper. Off leash parks in Toronto where dogs run free, are places of joy for pets and their owners. The essence of this abandon is depicted with humorous affection by Fernie, a masterful story-teller. Framed size is 50 x 36 inches.
