About this artwork

“Spontaneous Speck,” a captivating acrylic painting from 2024, measures an expansive 24 by 48 inches and is exclusively available in New York, NY, with a price tag of $3,300. This one-of-a-kind piece beautifully captures the essence of spontaneity and the fleeting moments of inspiration through its abstract expressionist style. The canvas boasts a base of pristine white, animated by a lively dance of speckles in charcoal, gray, and vibrant bursts of mandarine orange. These specks are not random but rather strategically placed to evoke a sense of sudden brilliance, like the unexpected sparks of an ingenious idea. The orange spots, in particular, symbolize moments of intense creativity and passion, contrasting starkly against the more subdued background. “Spontaneous Speck” utilizes a sophisticated layering technique, where each color and texture builds upon the last, creating a profound depth that pulls the viewer into a visual journey across the surface. The dynamic composition of the painting reflects the unpredictable nature of the creative process, where ideas emerge and recede in an organic flow. This artwork is an excellent choice for connoisseurs and enthusiasts who are drawn to pieces that not only beautify a space but also provoke thought and dialogue. It encourages an exploration of the spontaneous occurrences in both art and life, making it a profound statement piece in any collection. Ideal for a modern space that celebrates bold, expressive works of art, “Spontaneous Speck” offers not just a visual treat but a source of daily inspiration, reminding us of the beauty in the unexpected and the value of moments captured in time.

About the artist

Gina Keatley, a prominent artist based in New York City’s bustling Bushwick neighborhood, finds inspiration not only in the vibrant city streets but also amidst the serene landscapes of Italy during the summer months. Her body of work serves as a testament to the power of abstract expressionism, weaving narratives through the dynamic interplay of monochrome and the lively infusion of mandarine orange hues. In Keatley’s art, viewers are beckoned to embark on a journey into the depths of human emotion, where color serves as a richly nuanced language, illuminating narratives etched within the bold, sweeping lines of her canvases. This distinctive use of color—both restrained and evocative—creates a connection that is simultaneously introspective and visceral. This spring heralds the debut of Keatley’s highly anticipated Untamed Moderns collection, coinciding with the release of her latest book, “Essence of Orange,” which delves deeply into the significance of color within the realms of art and culture. These endeavors underscore Keatley’s steadfast belief in the transformative power of art—a dialogue between viewer and canvas that both challenges and inspires. For Keatley, art transcends mere exhibition, offering instead an immersive journey that celebrates the resilience and vibrancy of the human spirit. As she aptly expresses, “Art is a layered narrative that unfolds with each viewing. It’s not just about aesthetics; it’s about the human experience.” Each piece within the Untamed Moderns collection serves as a poignant ode to humanity’s capacity to endure and evolve, conveyed through the minimalist yet profoundly expressive language of modern art. Through her art, Keatley seeks to convey the inseparable bond between art and human resilience, offering viewers an experience that is both enriching and transformative—a testament to the enduring power of creativity in our lives.
