About the Item

Provocative portrait of a young woman, in primarily celadon green and cream, wearing a crown and offering a pensive look, from Kim Frohsin, who is often associated with the Bay Area Figurative movement. She began exhibiting in the San Francisco Bay Area in the early 1990s, and in 1993 was included with Nathan Olivera, Manuel Neri and Stephen De Staebler in an exhibit of "Four Figures from the Bay." With Wayne Thiebaud as the juror, she won the California Society of Printmakers' Award in 1996, and the following year exhibited at the de Young Museum in San Francisco in "Bay Area Art: The Morgan Flagg Collection." Frohsin is a multidisciplinary visual artist, who is at home with painting, drawing, monoprintIng, and mixed media. Her subjects include the female figure as well as mundane ''objects" and series — including ‘Cautionary Tales’ , ‘Reliquaries’ and ‘Portraits of Numbers’— that attract her attention, and which are most often autobiographical in nature. The painting is 14 x 11 3/4 inches and the outer dimension of the matting is 20 x 16 inches. A highly contemporary mixed media painting with Stabilo pencil, ink washes and colored pencil on paper that comes in a museum quality matting front and back. Custom framing is available for an additional $100. Please inquire within.
