Monique Sevenans Abstract Art

Abstractions Series 5.3 (Feb 2012 – Ongoing)

Latest series of abstraction work emphasizing thought suspension and increased experimentation. Details available under the Series 5.3 category in the Art in Progress blog.

These are all approximately 18″x24″ and a variety of mixed media: collage, tempera paint, charcoal and/or pastel drawn and painted on paper. They are all available unless otherwise noted.

Personal Checks and Paypal (via monique@sevenans.com) are accepted.

These works are shipped flat. My estimate for this is approx. S/H $30 within the US. If it is much more I will let you know. Please inquire for questions, overseas, insurance, etc. with monique@sevenans.com.

Abstractions Series 2 (Sept – Oct 2011)

With this work I entered a new phase of abstraction. They are done very quickly and intuitively, in this respect they are often carry a freer feel when doing them and are more effective for thought suspension. They often employ gesture, movement, line sensitivity and emotion. All are primarily charcoal, though chalk pastel sometimes entered the picture. Process notes on some of this work can be found here.

These are all 18″x24″, mixed media charcoal and/or pastel. Please check for availability and inquire with monique@sevenans.com with interest. S/H $10 within the US – International available as well. Drawings are shipped in a mailing tube. Unless otherwise specified and option of insurance are available for additional fees.
