About the Item

This is a one of a kind original mixed media (Papers from multiple sources, dye, paint, plexiglass) abstract painting depicting beautiful monarch butterflies against geometric composition by California artist and educator, Kathleen Kane-Murrell, titled, "Letters never sent". Its dimensions are 12 x 12 x 2.5 in (L x H x D). It is not framed. A certificate of authenticity will follow its delivery. Inspired by a childhood memory of Peter Pan, Kathleen Kane-Murrell’s collection, Chasing Shadows, explores the ephemeral nature of light and form. Using suspended plexiglass, she creates layered, shifting compositions where shadows become an integral part of the artwork—always present yet often overlooked. In a fast-paced world that demands quick judgments, Kane-Murrell invites viewers to slow down, engage in deep looking, and discover the quiet beauty in the fleeting. Her work is a meditation on time, transformation, and renewal, offering a space for contemplation and discovery. She notes, "My work is abstractly narrative. I do not seek to illustrate but to illuminate. There is a necessary tension in my work between spontaneous and controlled. Influences include art history, travel, music, books, and poetry. Patinas of layered mark-making reflect my perception of light, color, and sound. When a viewer reaches to touch my work to understand what is seen, I have achieved an elusive goal."
