Cat Tesla
Morning Hike -original abstract multimedia brushwork painting- contemporary art

2024

About the Item

This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. "Morning Hike" by Cat Tesla is an abstract journey that evokes the serene yet invigorating experience of an early morning walk through nature. The painting captures the essence of the earth with its rich green and blue tones, evoking the feeling of dew-kissed foliage and the crispness of the morning air. The composition is anchored by striking white negative space, which provides a moment of stillness amid the dynamic brushwork. Tesla's use of bright blue and purple lines creates a subtle frame that draws the eye inward, guiding the viewer's focus to the heart of the painting. These lines, wrapping around the corners, suggest the edges of a hidden landscape, inviting viewers to explore the depths of the scene. "Morning Hike" beautifully balances movement and tranquility, making it a captivating piece that brings the outdoors inside, infused with Tesla’s signature style of vibrant mark-making. Available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art in Chelsea, as well as online, where viewers can immerse themselves in the tranquil beauty of Cat Tesla’s abstract landscapes from anywhere in the world. Artist Biography: Cat Tesla is an internationally recognized contemporary abstract painter whose work is deeply rooted in nature.

Cat spent 20 years as a genetic counselor at Emory University in Atlanta before transitioning from genetics to art.

I stumble outside to breathe in the day. Cerulean blue and a thousand shades of green greet me as I walk from the house to my studio here in southwest Florida. Geckos dart, birds call, rabbits scurry. These sounds, sights and textures are my beginning. Painting connects me to a time in my youth of endless playing. The excitement of a new day. I’m an explorer on the canvas. I love building layers using painting and drawing, scraping back, then adding more, and pouring glossy translucent glazes over the surface. My artwork provides the viewer with a bold graphic element from a distance, but up close they’re rewarded with rich organic details and texture. My work draws from the rich palette of the natural world, capturing everything from the colors of the sky to the minutiae beneath our feet. I reimagine these elements, creating new landscapes, new nature scapes that blur the line between reality and abstraction. In my pieces, I play with contrasts—light against shadow, bold hues against muted tones, smooth textures against rough, the angular and the curvilinear. I'm fascinated by the interplay of strength and delicacy in nature and in ourselves, and I strive to reflect this tension in my art.”-Cat Tesla
