Moonlit Painting

Evelyn Gooley and Max Dal Santo have collaborated as Chromatisme Artworks since December 2017. Both self trained artists, they paint with pure emotion, free of convention. Their works have sold internationally and across Australia, are available online and through selected Adelaide cafes. Evelyn uses acrylic paint, inks and epoxy resin to create unique and colourful works that capture attention wherever they are displayed. Collectors often express their wish to reach out and touch her pieces, owing to their three dimensional finishes and unusual textures. Evelyn loves experimenting with unconventional techniques, substrates and mediums to create pieces with depth, texture and layers of rich colour. Her style is ever evolving as she explores new media, however her process is underpinned by the natural arcs of movement of the human body. Evelyn also produces limited runs of small works and functional art homewares, as part of her Tiny Art series. Max works with acrylic paints and impasto to produce works that emulate movement and draw inspiration from nature. Max is often inspired by his love of the South Australian coastline, which resonates strongly with collectors, with many pieces finding their way to coastal homes and holiday accommodation. Max integrates scientific principles with a masterful sense of colour to create textural pieces with high visual impact. In addition to his visual art, Max also creates bespoke timber furniture, using locally sourced recycled timbers, often integrating epoxy resin into his designs to highlight the natural features of these beautiful South Australian resources. Max also handcrafts all the timber frames used in Chromatisme Artworks pieces. Both artists are highly passionate about their craft but as passionate about offering works that are not going to break the budget. Everyone deserves high quality artworks.
