New Original Artwork: Love Letter to Myself

Love Letter to Myself by Deb Chaney (9” x 12”)

This post is to celebrate a new original artwork called Love Letter to Myself becoming available for purchase. Its prints are also now available to order online.

About This Painting

This painting was inspired by the cultivation of self-love. I started by typing a love letter to myself and printing it out on very large paper. I then collaged and integrated the printed text with handwritten and painted words in multiple layers of the painting. It was created for and during an online workshop I conducted during the pandemic called “Mastering Mixed Media Abstract Painting”. More details on the process of creating this painting can be found in my previous blog post.

This painting has 2 main colours — ultramarine violet and yellow iron oxide. With hues such as lavender and periwinkle, light purple is the dominant colour. Spiritually, purple is associated with the crown shakra, which is the energy centre of the top of the body. The colour is associated with a sense of belonging and connection, and the knowledge that we are all divine.

Light yellow supports the purples with shades of amber and gold, while text, both typed and handwritten, is embedded within layers of the painting.

Take it Away XIII Painting (c) Deb Chaney Original Painting, collage on Paper Size: 15 W x 11 H x 0.1 D in

The four original paintings for this installation were inspired by the ephemeral beauty of walking along the river through Lynn Valley in North Vancouver ‘Take it Away I, II, III & IV’ and were gifted to developers to be featured in their head office. That said, for the photo shoot and process of putting together the final documentation of the project I painted several more paintings to show the layers and process behind the mixed media works. Several of these paintings are available for your collection and can be purchased via Saatchi Online Gallery. You can click the Saatchi gallery link here or contact the artist directly info@debchaney.com to acquire one of these beautiful original mixed media paintings for your collection.

Original Painting ' You and Me Together ' sold and shipped to San Matteo, California, USA

I’d like to deeply thanks Ms. J. Garibaldi of San Matteo, CA for recently purchasing this original little gem mixed media abstract painting ‘You and Me Together’ 9” x 12”on paper. This one of a kind unique painting is part of my Little Gems Series . During the process of packing up the original artwork, it brought back fond memories of its creation whereby I was listening to my playlist and the song by Dave Matthews Band came on with the lyrics ‘You and Me Together’. When I noticed the ‘US’ spray painted lettering in the piece in conjunction with the song, I had to name is in memory of this moment of creation along with the music.

The Little Gems paintings are my practice pieces and all about fun, joy, play and are a wonderful way to start your collection of my original artwork.
