About the Item

This original abstract monotype painting by renowned Colorado artist Wilma Fiori (1929-2019) features a striking abstract composition in deep jewel tones of green, orange, teal, and purple against a bold black background. The monotype (numbered 1/1) is printed on high-quality paper and is signed by the artist in both the lower right and upper left corners, making this a unique and collectible piece. It is presented in a custom white frame with all archival materials for preservation. Provenance: Estate of the artist, Wilma Fiori About the Artist: Wilma Fiori, born Wilma Denny in 1929 in Youngstown, Ohio, was raised in Great Bend, Kansas. She earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) from Loretto Heights College in Denver, Colorado, in 1952. Fiori was also deeply interested in anthropology and later earned a Master of Arts degree in Anthropology from the University of Denver in 1979. Her work in the Native Arts Department at the Denver Art Museum helped inspire her transition to abstract art, drawing influence from Southwestern Native American pottery and textiles. Fiori studied under prominent Colorado artist Dale Chisman and worked alongside other talented artists like Bill Joseph, Jeffery Keith, and Quang Ho at the Art Students League of Denver. Her work has been exhibited for over 30 years across Colorado, Indiana, Illinois, and New York, with pieces in permanent collections at Regis University, the Denver Ritz-Carlton Hotel, and various private and corporate collections. This unique monotype painting exemplifies Fiori's mastery of abstract expression and is an excellent addition to any collection of modern art or abstract monotypes.

Summer Blues (abstract expressionist monoprint)
By David Chamberlain
Located in Wilton Manors, FL
Beautiful 1994 monotype painting by American artist, David Chamberlain (b.1950). Oil on Arches paper, image measures 16.5 x 21.5 inches; sheet measures 22 x 30 inches. The subtle variations of the oil application are quite lovely. Titled and signed by the artist in pencil, lower margin and on reverse. Excellent, clean condition with no damage or restoration. Unframed: sheet is loose with no backing. SHIPS ROLLED IN TUBE David Chamberlain (American, b Canton, Ohio 1949) has been a full-time artist since 1977, and has created more than 2000 original works in both two and three dimensions. Over 100 of his works appear in the collections of recognized arts institutions and museums, worldwide. A serious and passionate musician (a cappella jazz singer with three recording albums and over 700 concerts in this avocation), Chamberlain's artistic approach and imagery is inspired by studies of musical patterns and relationships. Other influences include topology, poetry, design and flying. His sculptures are noted for their playful explorations of lyrical, melodic edges and harmonious spaces. The surfaces are all one continuous form; the insides become the outsides and vice-versa; the edges are all one line. Mediums include mahogany, bronze, titanium, gold, and ceramic/porcelain. His paintings reflect an enthusiasm for composition and improvisation. Chamberlain has developed a way to create original oil paintings using methods adapted from monotype processes incorporating a light table and mirrors, an etching press, and a variety of hands-on tools (including fingers, rollers, static electricity and blowing)... but no brushes. This method, sometimes called the Chamberlain Method, makes possible the intense collaborations he is known for, where he and another artist work on the same painting at the same time. Called Duett Painting, this mutual and simultaneous way for two artists to paint together attempts to involve the backgrounds of each, directly and profoundly. There are no rules, and there is no place to hide whoever the artists are appears in the composition. As each artist's marks influence the other's, the painting takes on a momentum of its own, compelling the artists toward a new direction neither would have pursued on their own. Chamberlain has worked with over 100 artists, musicians, dancers, poets and creative people from the USA, Asia, Europe, South America and Africa. About half of his paintings are collaborative duetts; half are conventional solo works using these techniques. His studio is based near Boulder, Colorado. He is married, with two children, a dog and three cats.
