Abstract Expressionism

Abstract Expressionism is a painting movement in which artists typically applied paint rapidly and with force to their huge canvases in an effort to show feelings and emotions, painting gesturally, non-geometrically, sometimes applying paint with large brushes, sometimes dripping or even throwing it onto canvas. The expressive method of painting was often considered as important as the painting itself.

A few notable famous Abstract Expressionist paintings:
Hans Hofmann's Rising Sun
Willem de Kooning's Night
Cy Twombly's Untitled 1953
And of course Jackson Pollocks Painting (Silver over Black, White, Yellow, and Red

The above paintings can be found in museums around the world. Now we would like to introduce the world to another budding abstract expressionist. Below are three works we are trying to sell at auction.

First is titled Zebra in Spring Blossoms

The second is titled Blue Clouds during Moonlight Eclipse

And the third and final installment in the series is titled Waking Moments of Dizzy Cookie Monster


If all goes well the above paintings will be on display at Sothebys Auction House starting in November. However if you are interested in owning one of the works, please email us and we will take any reasonable offer.

About the artist:
Charlotte Early Ronan born December 7th 2005 has been painting for over 12 months. She enjoys horses, dogs, and Sunshine on the playground. She finds solace in her art and has amazing technique in expressionism. Her medium of choice is non-toxic Crayola finger paint. She is currently working on her next series of painting using a mixed medium format.

A few pictures of the artist at work. Note the passion in her expressive technique. The artist truly becomes one with her art, crossing the barrier of the art world by throwing herself into her painting and becoming one with her medium. Again the method of painting is what sets her work apart from amateure artits.

Seriously, I want the monster. How large is it because I need to get a frame. Actually would you part with all three? My craft room now has a gallery where I show much of Caitey's work. Charlotte needs her space too.

I will pay!!
