Chelsea Davine Mixed Media

British, b. 1971

For her inviting abstract paintings and mixed media works, contemporary artist Chelsea Davine draws inspiration from the landscapes around her as well as the unheralded details of daily life in Spain. The shoreline near her studio in Barcelona, the range of colors in the piles of leaves on the ground at a local park, the dazzling show that the sky puts on in the morning and in the early evening hours — nature’s colors and the outdoors have indeed greatly impacted Davine’s work over the years.

Born in London in 1971, Davine studied at the Chelsea School of Art (now Chelsea College of Arts) from 1991 to 1992 before earning her degree in fine art from Middlesex University in 1995. While at Middlesex, she attended a three-month Erasmus sculpture program at the University of Valencia

After her studies had concluded, Davine moved to Barcelona in 1998 where she was charmed by the city’s cultural dynamism, color and life. The country’s capital also came to influence her work. “In London, I used concrete and gray,” she said. “In Barcelona, I use steel, red and gold.”

Davine initially spent time creating bespoke furniture in wood and steel and working on interior design projects through her interiors/design studio, Milk, which she founded in 2006. In 2009, she debuted a selection of paintings, sculpture and photography at her first solo show at the Tasneem Gallery in Barcelona. The exhibition yielded commissions from local architects and a range of international clients. 

Davine’s abstract, figurative paintings and landscape paintings have depth and reference her roots in sculpture — they offer a three-dimensional effect that materializes owing to the works’ layers of textures and rich colors. Her signature use of copper leaf, gold leaf and oil on steel or canvas is seen in many of her most recent pieces such as Archipelago, Pink Meridian and Horizon in Silver Steel.

Throughout her career, Davine has shown her work in numerous solo and group exhibitions across Europe, Asia and North America.

"I Can Experience Joy and Happiness" Abstract Butterfly Painting Acrylic Canvas
By Ash Almonte
Located in New York, NY
The Butterfly series for Ash began as a sentiment to her late Father. Butterflies began to appear in unexplainable ways after his passing, the artist later discovered that Butterflies represent spiritual rebirth, transformation, change, hope, and life - she goes on to say: "The butterfly series draws inspiration from Rivera's quote 'Butterflies can't see their wings. They can't see how truly beautiful they are, but everyone else can.'" After coming to the fruition that Butterflies pose as not only a symbol for beauty and rebirth, Almonte felt a feeling of deep comfort. Her passion for sharing this message of hope and renewal through her colorfully diverse canvases is achieved with resilience leaving her audience glimmering much like the inner voice and the spark of Joie de vivre that fuels her purpose in life to create. This piece is painted on thick gallery wrap canvas and is signed lower right and on verso, it comes with hanging wire on verso ready to be displayed. Art measures 48 x 48 inches Inspired by vibrance and an optimistic outlook on life, Ash Almonte is recognized for her distinct abstract expressionistic style. She is best known for her series of Chandeliers, Butterflies, and Fashion from the Seventh Avenue Design District. Almonte's award-winning works can be found in private and permanent collections around the world. She is motivated by change, compassion for others, and miraculous phenomena that can impact others for good. Her flair and admiration for fashion and art have been a staple of her life since childhood. As a young girl, she would experiment using anything she could find to make art; from tearing apart bushel baskets at her father’s fruit stand, to tearing out old magazine clippings from her mother's magazine collection; anything and everything around her could potentially be used to create. She would continue to seek out opportunities throughout her young adult years, as her love for fashion grew, allowing her to collaborate with celebrity stylists creating looks for top billboard artists, as well as apparel worn at New York Fashion Week for designers Sherri Hill...

"Dripping Dots - Kingston" Blue & Black Gradient Abstract Oil Painting on Canvas
By Cindy Shaoul
Located in New York, NY
With layers of bright oils and whisking brush strokes, the paint is able to shine and shimmer in a very unique pattern. The artist uses gold leaf, thick textured oils, mixed media and, pieces of glass to add a very contemporary, Urban feel. The way the paint blends and washes into other colors gives it a very elegant feel. This style is focused on the simplicity of beauty in the moment; the artist creates a translucent but very colorful pallet with thick use of paint, evoking a result which is clean, fresh and modern. This piece is from the artists Dripping Dots...
