About
Graphic abstract painting on linen over panel in complementary shades of pale blue, grey blue, orche and moss green
"Curbside" by Jenny Kemp, painted in 2019
acrylic on linen over panel, 22 x 18 inches
Signed, verso
Jenny Kemp’s abstract paintings are inspired by the artist’s desire to represent unseen phenomenon. With intricate and calculated line-work, the artist builds parallel layers against opaque backgrounds, while shifts in color and shape call attention to organic forms that give reference to the human body or atomic structures. Precise lines transitioning from pale blue, grey blue to an earth toned orche and moss green follow elliptical paths over an opaque blue background. The abstract painting is made on linen that is tightly wrapped over a wooden panel. The sides are unpainted, revealing the raw linen.
About the artist:

She has been featured in publications such as 100 Painters of Tomorrow published by Thames & Hudson, New American Paintings, The Huffington Post, Seattle’s City Arts, New York Times, and The New England Review. Kemp is also a recipient of the 2015 NYFA fellowship in painting and the 2015 Emerging Artist Award recipient from the Art Center of the Capital Region in Troy, NY.
