Mixed Media Abstract Art "BLUE HORIZONS" by Colorado Mixed Media Artist Carol Nelson Fine Art

Blue Horizons is a captivating abstract landscape collage that captures the essence of fractured terrain through layers of rich textures and varied colors. Dominant shades of blue, green, brown, and white suggest elements of water, earth, and ice or snow, creating a sense of dynamic and tactile qualities within the piece. The artwork blurs the line between representation and abstraction, offering an evocative visual experience that invites personal interpretation. This painting comes with an off white/gray frame and gold fillet.

Oil and Cold Wax Abstract Painting, "Beach Highway", by Carol Nelson Fine Art

Abstract Art, Mixed Media Painting “CRYSTAL CREEK” by Colorado Artist Carol Nelson

You can see the heavy texture on this painting that gives it dimension and depth. I did not have an ocean theme in mind when I painted it because I’m more of a geologic-themed painter, but this one sure looks like a clear mountain stream flowing over rock forms, or perhaps an aerial view of tide pools and coast line. What I love about this particular piece, besides the texture, is the variety of hues and the rich glimpses of underlying layers of paint. These are much more evident when seeing the painting up close IN PERSON. The sides are painted dark brown. It can be hung without a frame, either vertical or horizontal.

Mixed Media Abstract Collage, "Cloud Kiss" by Carol Nelson Fine Art



I am wondering why this painting received so many "likes" on Facebook. The neutral palette? The various textures? The cruciform design pattern? The juxtaposition of hard and soft edges? The full range of values?


 I knew it was a winner as soon as I finished it. All the commotion on my Facebook page affirms that.

Mixed Media Geologic Abstract Painting, "IN SEARCH OF ROSE GOLD" by Carol Nelson Fine Art

This geologic abstract is heavily textured. It has gold accents that glow in the light. I love the soft transitions from lavender to pink to gold. In many areas there are multiple layers of color using Golden fluid acrylics. Colors were put down, then spritzed with water, allowing adjacent colors to mingle on the their own. It is endlessly fascinating to watch this process.
