Contemporary Abstract Mixed Media Art Paintings "Copper Caverns" by Contemporary Arizona Artist Pat Stacy

The caverns of our lives often can be represented by symbols--and I have attempted to do that similarly to petroglyphs. The copper is metal paint that turns beautiful blues and greens when patina is applied. Accented by a darker copper in the descending squares, this piece is truly lovely.

Abstract Mixed Media Southwest Art Painting "Por El Bien" By Arizona Artist Pat Stacy

WHAT IS THE 12x12?

This painting is my donation to an upcoming (June 2015) Sedona Arts Center Fundraiser


Nearly 100 artists are producing one (or more) 12-inch by 12-inch art works that will be sold at a one-day event on June 12, 2015, for a set price of $250

Buyers will not know for sure who created the art work that appeals to them until after they have purchased it! Because the list of invited artists includes many nationally recognized artisans, collectors are likely to have purchased “for a song” a prize worth far more than the $250 they paid for it.

MORNING ARRIVES ... FASHIONABLY LATE


MORNING ARRIVES ... FASHIONABLY LATE


Acrylic on highly Textured Wood Panel. This was a fun piece to do. It was a bit of an experiment in which I  used a Brayer, Palette Knife and a Brush to get the finished effect.  I use a Brayer for a lot of my Backgrounds on my Collages but this time I incorporated it more into the actual painting.
