ORIGINAL ARTWORK
Acrylic Gel Print on Kraft Paper
Art Size: 12" x 12"
Frame Size: 17" x 17" x .75"
Part of the ongoing Studio Notes collection, this original gel print emerged through a process of experimentation, layering, and discovery.
Created on kraft paper, warm natural undertones mingle with soft ivory and weathered neutrals, creating subtle shifts in tone beneath layers of charcoal and light. Atmospheric transitions and layered textures lend the piece a quiet sense of depth, movement, and imperfect beauty.
Studio Notes is an archive of original works discovered in the studio—pieces recognized and preserved as complete moments within a larger creative practice. Some remain singular originals, while others may later serve as the foundation for larger paintings, print releases, or future collections.
Finished in a white mat and white wood frame, this signed original is ready to hang.
An original painting is a one-of-a-kind work created by artist Julia Contacessi. When you purchase an original, you purchase the only one in existence. Some originals are created on paper and others on canvas.
Stretching and framing details are unique to each work and those specifics are noted in the product description.
Included along with your original is a signed certificate of authenticity that will include details about the artwork like the title, dimensions, date created and value.

From the studio
“I can fall madly in love with the sparkle from the edge of a gold glass vase, or obsess over the texture of a stone found along a walk. As a way to hold onto these bits of beauty, I started creating art.”
— Julia Contacessi
