Ruth le Cheminant's lively abstract acrylic paintings on canvas engage the eye with their vivacious energy and powerful colors. Incorporating an international palette of influences to her stylistically sophisticated works, le Cheminant draws on the work of diverse cultural groups including Asian, Oceanic and contemporary Aboriginal art. Le Cheminant employs a free and confident brush stroke whose movement possesses an almost musical quality, as brilliant hues dance across the canvas in a harmonious symphony of color, texture, and abstract form. The eye, in turn, follows this enticing rhythmic movement, continually enthralled and entertained by each beautiful work of art. As a result, le Cheminant's paintings call to the emotions, lifting the spirits, and for a moment, transporting the viewer to a world enrobed in pure aesthetic wonder.
Born in Australia, Ruth le Cheminant holds a graduate degree in painting from the University of New South Wales. The subject of numerous favorable reviews, the artist exhibits her paintings in Sydney and New York.
