Daylight Dreams Editions and Terri Deskins Contemporary & Abstract Art Artwork

• The “Blue Notes” series swings with the rhythms of mid-century jazz, and pays homage to modernist masters such as Miro, Calder, and DeKooning.

This dynamic painting explodes with color and energy. Bold, primary colors and shapes are tamed with pale pinks, soft blue-grey, and powdery lavenders accented with gestural, inky strokes against a warm off-white textured paper.

• This Giclée is printed on archival watercolor paper and has deckled edges.

"Solitude" is an Asian inspired mixed-media collage - 22 x 28 in a black floating frame. She was inspired by my many trips to Japan and seeing the women walking in the rain with their umbrellas, on quiet mornings.

• A sensual flurry of color and line, reminescent of modern masters such as Joan Mitchell and Cy Twombly.
• Giclée print on Somerset Velvet watercolor paper.

I love playing with shapes and texture. Enzo was born on one of those days. The colors are vibrant using only yellow, white and black. The green comes from mixing the yellow and black. There is acrylic texture outlining the shapes. This painting is on 12" x 12" x 1.5" museum gallery wrapped canvas. The sides are painted black so framing is optional. It is wired and ready to hang.

The Mediterranean is an abstract inspired by the color palette from the sea, shore, sky, and mountainous regions of the Mediterranean. The textures resemble old and worn stucco and were achieved by adding numerous layers of paint and carefully scrapping the layers away. The painting is on 36" x 36" x 1.5" museum-grade gallery wrapped canvas and has two coats of varnish to help protect from dust and UV light. The sides continue are white so framing is optional. It is wired and ready to hang. I added a few photos showing what the painting could look like if framed it is sold unframed.

I absolutely love raku-fired pottery. Since I don��_�t own a kiln, nor am I a pottery artist, trying to capture the essence of them in a painting was my goal. Each of the the paintings are on 20��_ x 20" x 1.5" museum-quality gallery wrapped canvas. I used steel grey, black and white colored acrylic paint only, mixing them to achieve an elegant color and feeling. The texture is created with acrylic mediums.
