Mixed Media Abstract Art "BADLANDS" by Colorado Mixed Media Artist Carol Nelson Fine Art

This artwork, titled "Badlands," is a 24 x 24 mixed media piece that showcases a rich texture and three-dimensional feel. The colors transition through earthy tones of brown, orange, gold, and charcoal, with a striking stripe of bright blue cutting across the darker shades. The paint application varies, ranging from smooth washes to dense, opaque areas. The composition and color palette might suggest a natural landscape, reminiscent of arid terrain, rocky outcrops, or a geological cross-section. The bold contrast and dynamic forms engage the viewer's imagination to interpret the scene, creating an emotional or visceral response. The artwork is inspired by desert badlands and salt flats, and its heavily textured surface adds a unique and captivating element.

Mixed Media Abstract Art "BLUE HORIZONS" by Colorado Mixed Media Artist Carol Nelson Fine Art

Blue Horizons is a captivating abstract landscape collage that captures the essence of fractured terrain through layers of rich textures and varied colors. Dominant shades of blue, green, brown, and white suggest elements of water, earth, and ice or snow, creating a sense of dynamic and tactile qualities within the piece. The artwork blurs the line between representation and abstraction, offering an evocative visual experience that invites personal interpretation. This painting comes with an off white/gray frame and gold fillet.

Collage, Mixed Media Painting “MEADOWLAND” by Colorado Artist Carol Nelson

I love the work of Richard Diebenkorn. He often painted to what looked like aerial views of the landscape. Although this painting didn't start out that way, it ended up looking to me like an aerial view of farmland. Several collage papers were used to provide textures. This painting comes with a black floater frame.
