Kristine Kainer
Nautilus Interior, Oil Painting

2020

About the Item

Artist Comments
Artist Kristine Kainer paints the interior of a nautilus shell depicting a naturally occurring mathematical spiral known as the Fibonacci Sequence. As a former math teacher, Kristine often taught lessons using nature as a guide and was always fascinated by this particular seashell. Here she combines her love of math with her calling as an artist and love of the sea.


About the Artist
For Kristine Kainer, recreating her emotional attachments to subject matter, whether a still-life or landscape, is paramount. Her goal is to emotionally trigger a response in the viewer. But, "this response does not need to replicate my own feelings; instead, I hope to make the viewer pause for a moment, reflect upon, then respond to my work in a personal, meaningful way."

  • Composition in Blue, Oil Painting
    By Lisa Nielsen
    Located in San Francisco, CA

    Artist Comments
    Artist Lisa Nielsen captures a cool and soft atmosphere in this still-life piece. She expresses freedom to experiment with the arrangement of elements by adding glasses, teacups, and ribbons. Lisa infuses shades of blue throughout the entire composition. She adds subtle contrasts of color for easiness to the eyes.


    About the Artist
    There;s a certain innocent joy that comes through in Lisa Nielsen;s artwork. She finds beauty in the everyday and often ordinary, whether it;s painting a pretty girl in the garden or spending time with her daughter at Chipotle - and let;s face it, what isn;t beautiful about a burrito bowl? Lisa likes to say she captures moments in the journey of life. What we see in her art is all part of her life philosophy: to be still, to breathe, to exhaust the small moment.
