Marie-Eve Champagne

Of Rocks and Colors - Sulphur Shine, Original Painting

2022

Artist Comments
Artist Marie-Eve Champagne features a realistic image of beautiful yellow ore in mesmerizing crystalline clusters. An entry to her series of still-life minerals and their relationship to pigments and colors. "After all, once transformed into a paste, aren’t colors just a bunch of crushed rocks on a surface," suggests Marie-Eve. A light minty teal background softly cpmplements the vibrant yellow translucency of the subject, emphasizing the glowing aspect of the rock.

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.
