Gail Chase-Bien Abstract Paintings
American
Gail Chase-Bien has a way of creating boundless worlds within the edges of the canvas. Her nature-inspired abstract, landscape and figurative paintings blur the distinction between background and foreground, inviting the viewer’s imagination to structure the piece. She brings softness, subtlety and suggestion to the edgy world of contemporary art.
Chase-Bien was born in Lowell, Massachusetts, in 1946. She attended the California College of Arts and Crafts in Oakland, receiving a bachelor’s of fine art in 1977 and a master’s of fine art in 1980. She held her first solo exhibition at Highlight Gallery in Mendocino in 1985 and continued to show steadily throughout California during the rest of the ’80s and ’90s.
Chase-Bien’s collection of work is a tribute to nature and the play of light upon the colors of the landscape. At the same time, her paintings are a meditation upon the human spirit and an invitation for introspection. Each piece takes her anywhere from a few months to years to make using oil paints on linen.
Chase-Bien currently lives and works in Napa County. Her ethereal paintings are held in many private collections and are exhibited at galleries and museums across California and beyond.

Ten Mile Beach (diptych)
By Gail Chase-Bien
Located in Burlingame, CA
Gail Chase Bien paints thinly layered oil on linen over extended periods (from months to years) to complete a single work of art. Taking cues from nature’s extraordinary visual offerings — specifically, the play of light as it touches upon water and earth — her nature-inspired works bridge realism and abstraction, and they convey a thin veneer of the of human spirit. Complex, rich, and slow in the making, the paintings, with their serene simplicity, are intended to be viewed and enjoyed over time.

Tower Afterglow - Original Lifeguard Tower Beach Painting
By Kathleen Keifer
Located in Los Angeles, CA
Kathleen Keifer is a California-based internationally collected artist. She is a leading force of the New California Realism. With a high level of technical virtuosity Keifer creates a new sense of reality with textures and colors that seem to add lighting effects and distinct shadows, confronting the viewer with new interpretations of familiar objects.
This one-of-a-kind 12 inch square original artwork is a composition created with acrylic paint on canvas. It is wired and ready to hang. The sides are painted as a continuation of the front and it does not require framing. It signed by the artist on the front of the artwork. Convenient local Los Angeles area shipping. Affordable Continental U.S. and global shipping also available. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included.
Kathleen’s paintings invite the viewer to consider the complex relationship between time and timelessness. It is the sheer visual interaction between the elements, taken in their bare simplicity that interests her. For her, painting captures the very essence of time and its passage. She believes that actual sites and places have an individual magic. The goal is to take objects from popular culture and paint them in a new narrative context. Her complex approaches to popular board games present the subjects as living, tangible objects.
Born and raised in Chicago, Kathleen Keifer is a second-generation artist. Her mother, also a fine artist, exposed Keifer to the world of art and supervised her training from a very early age. This legacy continues today as Keifer closely nurtures the development of the artistic leaning in each of her three daughters, inspiring a third generation of female artists. Her works are represented by Artspace Warehouse Los Angeles and have been exhibited and collected internationally, including Chicago, New York and London.
Artspace Warehouse has been representing and exhibiting Kathleen Keifer's original artworks since 2017. The gallery has been a 1stdibs partner since 2014 with consistently excellent reviews from clients worldwide. The gallery exhibits a large selection of affordable original artworks from established and emerging international artists with diverse backgrounds at high standards. Artspace Warehouse is known to provide accurate descriptions, images, reliable services, communication, and delivery.
