Kathryn Lynch
Study for Traffic Painting

About the Item

Excerpt from Mark Segal, "An Artist at the Mercy of Her Subjects," The East Hampton Star, May 14, 2015 "Ms. Lynch paints recognizable things, and she always has. “I never switched styles — I need to hook onto reality. Early on I realized my reality is a little off-center, and it continues to be so.” One reason she cites for her style is a limited skill set. “You can tell by the way I paint I’m not a skilled draftsman.” Her subjects include buildings, boats, landscapes, people, and flowers, and the locations, in addition to Brooklyn and Manhattan, include Shelter Island, where she has summered for 10 years, and Maine, where she recently spent two weeks. Her flat, simple forms have a blunt, almost primitive and sometimes unfinished quality that situates them between realism and abstraction and suggests painters as diverse as Milton Avery, Fairfield Porter, and Philip Guston without resembling any of them or even, sometimes, each other."
