About the Item

Sophie Dumont is a professional painter whose work is collected worldwide and is known for her deep exploration of texture, color, and form. Her paintings often evoke the quiet beauty of everyday life and nature, offering a unique perspective on the world around us. With a mastery of oil painting techniques, Dumont captures both the visible and the invisible, inviting viewers to delve into a world of abstract thought and expression. Whether depicting tranquil seascapes, intimate views of artists' studios, or abstract compositions, her works explore themes of memory, knowledge, and the passage of time. In "Bound by Color", Sophie Dumont delves into the connection of shapes and colors within a meticulously structured composition. This oil on canvas, measuring framed (23.62x 23.62 x 1,38 in) features a series of brightly colored books arranged on shelves, creating a balance that speaks to the diversity and richness of literature. Each book, with its thick texture and vibrant hue, seems to tell a different story, yet they are all united by the artist’s carefully chosen color palette. The warm and cool colors, ranging from reds to blues, along with softer and earthier tones, create a visual dynamism where every ray of light and shadow breathes life into this pictorial library. The expressive brushstrokes and layers of paint reveal the artist’s engagement, seeking to capture not just the appearance of a book but its texture and the energy it conveys. The way Dumont plays with light and shadow through the colors and shapes makes this piece a reflection on the importance of knowledge, as well as the subjectivity of the stories contained within each volume. The artist invites the viewer to interpret what may be hidden behind each book, to explore the untold stories that might reside in the space between the shelves.

Stella Day (6.3.17) - Original Textural Abstract Floral Oil Painting on Canvas
By Sally West
Located in Los Angeles, CA
This original floral oil painting by Sally West features a vibrant bouquet of impasto flowers, perfect for collectors drawn to expressive contemporary botanical textured art created with a palette knife. Bursting with rich reds, peachy corals, soft lilacs, and lush greens, each flower is sculpted with thick, gestural strokes that radiate vitality and movement. The composition feels abundant and celebratory, capturing the joyful chaos of a garden in full bloom. What makes Sally West’s original oil paintings so recognizable is the combination of texture, abstraction, and calming colors. The movement of her paint strokes on canvas is reminiscent of a light breeze or waves. Each painting is completed in one day, with the date present in the title. West's textural pieces take at least eight weeks to completely dry. Once dry, the thick paint takes on an almost sculptural effect. Overall, West’s color palette is uniquely her own, conveying a very specific feeling of comfort associated with familiarity and softness. This one-of-a-kind 39-inch square artwork is painted with thick, textural oil paint on canvas. It is wired and ready to hang. It is signed by the artist on the front lower right corner as well as the back. The sides of this artwork are painted, and it is ready to hang. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and worldwide shipping are available. A certificate of authenticity issued by Artplex Gallery is included. Sally West was born in West Wyalong, Central New South Wales. West grew up on a farm and, as a teenager, moved to Eastern Sydney for school.
