Kimberly Blackstock
My Grandpa Was A Toy Salesman - Saturated Paint Droplets by Kimberly Blackstock

2023

About the Item

Thick-painted accents in Canadian artist Kimberly Blackstock’s artworks create compelling depth and dimensionality. Over the last 8 years, Blackstock has become known for her dedication to exploring and pushing the boundaries of paint application. Her palette is uplifting and energetic, and her work is full of bigger-than-life gestural brushstrokes, vibrant pools of paint, and parallel lines of saturated color. This unique abstract painting measures 30 inches square. The sides are painted and it does not require framing. It is wired and ready to hang. This painting is signed on the back. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and global shipping available A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included. Born in Vancouver B.C., Blackstock grew up in a stable but ever-changing environment, living in 10 different neighborhoods by age 12. She embraced the frequent changes in her surroundings and the array of new personalities and characters that passed through her life. “I truly think my childhood routine of moving has made me the adventure-seeking artist I am today, surely it has contributed to the desire to continually see things in a different light.” Blackstock has been exhibited across Canada and has been published as a representative of Western Canadian art internationally. Her unique uses of contrasting textures have drawn interest and collectors worldwide.

  • "The Tattooist & The Teenager" Acrylic Collage on Wood Panel
    By Trevor Norris
    Located in West Hollywood, CA
    Trevor Norris was born into a large family living in a small but brightly painted english row house. Life inside was turbulent and colorful. Norris's art is a personal reflection using his written stories as a catalyst to spark each work. The text holds the meaning and yet he covers it with many layers of bright paint making it illegible to the viewer. as each work develops it becomes more about the paint and less about the words. Trevor Norris tells his story, through layers of shapes and paint, reworking his literary narrative, finding order in disorder, and meaning in what is not said.
