About the Item

"La Belle" - Oil and Acrylic on Canvas Oil and acrylic multicolor and multitextured abstract painting by Patricia Selin (American, B 1936-). Greens, purples, blues and whites take up the canvas, with a focal point depicting a thick blue line as the base, with pops of greens and purples mixed into the blues. White acrylic paint is splashed on the bottom left of the blue, giving a lifted texture and a pop of contrast. As the blue fades out, purple and green take over the center, fainting out to the bottom right of the canvas. Titled "La Belle" on verso. Signed "Patricia Salen" on verso Presented in a wood glossed frame. Frame: 27"H x 33"W Image: 23.5"H x 29.5"W Patricia Selin (Henrietta) was born in Salt Lake City, Utah where she learned to paint at a young age. Selin attended the University of Utah, where she graduated in 1960, receiving her bachelors of Fine Arts. She moved to California, where she continues to paint, currently residing in Salinas. Selins pieces have been shown in numerous galleries across California, including: The Valley Art Gallery (Walnut Creek, CA), Design Plus Gallery (San Francisco, CA), and Salinas Valley Art Gallery (Salinas, CA). Selin describes her work as "Rhapasodic colors, a rhythmic composition and textural surface creating the drama." "Every painting begins with the color of the mood I’m in. Then, as I mass the color on the canvas, the color I see emerging suggest the direction the painting should go.” The process is part inspiration, part calculation, part instincts and discovery, and part technique and knowledge. She paints from all directions turning the canvas on her easel, to assure the composition is balanced no matter how it is hung and signs on the back so the collector can hang it any of four ways.
