Bright Side

Bright Side by Charlotte De Pace

This original painting continues Charlotte's exploration of ideas of transparency and solidity. Inspired by colour theory and stylised forms from nature, Charlotte embraces a distinctive, hard-edged abstract style, overlapping shapes and juxtaposing vibrant colours to achieve a sense of luminosity and equilibrium. Rainbow arcs are a recurring symbol in Charlotte's artwork, chosen for their association with hope, peace and joy as well as their visual versatility in creating abstract compositions.

Bright Side is hand-signed on the front and back and is ready to hang with wire attached. Please note, this painting is UNFRAMED - careful attention has been paid to the sides of the canvas (see picture in gallery images) so it doesn't require framing but for an extra special finish, Charlotte recommends professional framing in a timber floating frame (such as the examples in the gallery images) and can be arranged through Bluethumb by selecting from the framing options.

Charlotte’s artistic practice is driven by a desire to find and express a brighter side of life. Aware of the emotive power of colour and harmonious composition, she embraces a vibrant palette and finds inspiration in nature, distilling it to its purest forms to create abstract compositions. Rainbow arcs are a recurring symbol throughout her artwork, chosen for their association with hope and peace as well as their visual versatility to create interesting and unexpected forms. Through layering and juxtaposing rich, vivid colour, Charlotte gives strength and luminosity to overlapping shapes and shadows evoking a sense of harmony, simplicity and joy.

Art and art making have always been an integral part of Charlotte’s life. Following her university studies (Bachelor of Visual and Performing Arts, VCA, and Master of Art Curatorship, University of Melbourne), she enjoyed a career in exhibition management and curatorship. Over the last few years, she’s focussed on her own professional artistic practice drawing on her passion for colour and developing a distinctive abstract style.
