Gaby Acevedo - Mar - Marélia (XL)

New contemporary abstract artwork, unique and original, entirely hand-painted with acrylic on canvas. I drew inspiration from the light and serenity of the Mediterranean to create a composition where the soft pale blues of the sky meet a sea of deep blues, while a delicate sand strip adds balance and brightness. A piece created to convey calm, spaciousness, and the essential beauty of the marine landscape.

My name is Gaby Acevedo, I am a visual artist, born in Argentina (1972). I live and produce my works in Spain. With more than 25 years of experience, I specialize in abstract art, mixed media, and collage.
