Vera Paints Skeins of Color (Diptych) features two vibrant panels showcasing bundles of intertwined strands in a rich array of hues. The left panel contrasts bold, radiant strands of reds, oranges, yellows, and purples against a deep black background, creating a striking and dynamic visual. In the right panel, the same vivid strands are set against a lighter background, with a blend of white and pale hues, highlighting the colorful skeins' vibrancy. Each bundle is tied with a purple knot, adding a touch of cohesion and focus. This diptych beautifully captures the energetic essence of mid-century modern design, perfect for adding a touch of lively sophistication and visual excitement to any space.
Vera Neumann's abstract watercolor and collage art is a vibrant tapestry of color and texture, reflecting her innovative approach to design. With a keen eye for combining bold hues and organic shapes, Neumann's creations often exude a sense of whimsy and spontaneity. Her use of watercolor lends a fluidity to her work, with colors bleeding into one another to create soft transitions and harmonious blends.

The result is a collection of art that is dynamic, engaging, and truly unique, showcasing Neumann's distinctive style and creative vision.
The majority of Vera's original artwork is unsigned and undated. This absence of her signature is largely due to her original artwork being used in textile and houseware designs, where her trademarked signature was later added. Typically, her original artwork was named after being incorporated into a master strike off. In some instances, the date of the piece was added to the back; however, this date may signify when the artwork was trademarked or presented to a customer. Some of her original pieces include notes on the back, offering a glimpse into the inner workings of The Vera Company.
