BIWT i 36 W x 24 H x 0.5 D in mixed media, collage, spray paint on Canvas (c) Deb Chaney 2021

As we continue the experience of the world wide pandemic unexpectedly into its second year the majority of us are in the situation of nowhere to go, not much to do. For artists, this is ideal for creative production and I found myself handling the inability to make travel plans as my ability to go inward and to make art, more art and even more art.

One of my teachers would say that going into her studio and making art was her way of running away from home without really leaving. I love this!

Making art means that I get to dive into unknown world of layers of spray paint, collage, paint gestures, layers of translucent mediums and nobody can stop me! I get to create!

This painting called BIWT stands for ‘ Because I Want To’ and created in series at the time when the quarantine was the most intense.

It is really and truly stands for the power of creative process and how it can be the healthiest and most beautiful way to handle stress, challenges and tragedy.

Angry, frustrated, or fed up with the current situation? Then why no make art about it ? That is how I choose to move forward. My art statement for this painting is the transformative quality of being in creative process and how we can turn challenging emotions into beautiful creations.

This painting is available for your collection and you can purchase it here online at Saatchi Art Gallery.

Five New Original Artworks Inspired by The Ocean Underwater

new art iii

Introducing five new original abstract paintings from my Little Gems Series fresh from the studio! The inspiration and background behind these acrylic and ink on paper fine art creations is that I watched the beautiful, inspiring and oh-so emotional documentary film ‘My Octopus Teacher’ and became enthralled by the beauty of the ocean. Total honesty? I cry just re-watching the trailer. This film is magnificent. The paintings are a by-product of my experience watching this movie.

These gentle ocean paintings would work well to support the interior design of your bedroom or living room. Placing these paintings, with their soothing analogous colours and soft shapes, in a room where you intend to relax and let go of your day would work well to support you in creating a sanctuary in your home.

Following the principles of Feng Shui, and using the bagua concept, these paintings would accentuate the introspection and inner wisdom area of your life development and personal growth, as well as supporting your inner peace, specifically by placing them in the back left hand corner room of your room/home/office.
