Contemporary Abstract Expressionist Mixed Media Painting with Red Chop Seal

This contemporary square-format abstract painting features a complex layered technique, likely executed in mixed media such as oil or acrylic with metallic leaf or iridescent pigments. The palette is dominated by deep indigo and midnight blues in the upper register, transitioning into earthy browns, ochre, and bright gold-toned highlights in the lower half. The composition suggests an organic or underwater scene, with vertical, grassy brushstrokes and horizontal, leaf-like patches of gold that catch the light. A significant distinguishing feature is the presence of a distinct red 'chop seal' or artist's stamp in the lower right corner, indicating a fusion of Western abstraction and East Asian tradition. The work is housed in a modern, dark brown wooden floater frame, which creates a narrow gap between the art and the frame edge for a floating effect. Based on the stylistic cues and the artist's location (Alaska), the work likely dates from the late 20th to early 21st century. The condition appears excellent with no visible craquelure, fading, or moisture damage, showing high-quality archival craftsmanship in both the application of the heavy impasto and the professional framing.
