About the Item
My paintings and drawings incorporate elements found in architecture, design, popular culture and art history. My reductive compositions and pure color mimic the low-tech graphics utilized in mid-century media, while also alluding to color field paintings of the1960s. I utilize tape to mask out shapes and create hardedge stencil-like forms. The process acknowledges early screen printing techniques as well as cubism and collage.
My recent multicolored paintings and drawings are made with oil paint stained on linen and with gouache on handmade paper. I create irregular hand drawn shapes that lay flat and abut at the edges. The curves and irregularities of the edges accentuate the space between, reading both as line and structure. Shapes and colors are rendered intuitively, with one choice informing the next, always mindful of the interplay of negative and positive space.
When applying oil paint to linen and gouache to handmade paper, I try to retain and accentuate the inherent properties of both mediums, the weave and tooth of the linen, the variants in the handmade paper and the pure saturated color of the paint. This direct tactile approach celebrates the details in the forms, the beauty of singular color and the power in simplicity.

- Green Bricks, abstract geometric painting, gridLocated in New York, NYGouache and graphite on handmade paper. 18 x 12 inches unframed, 23.25 x 17.25 inches framed. Artist Statement: “As an artist, I find endless possibilities overwhelming and use self-imposed boundaries to focus my work. This often includes some combination of: a literal grid or graphite border, employment of barbecue skewers or wooden chopsticks in lieu of paintbrushes for mark making, use of a monochromatic or limited color palette, and a reliance on shape and pattern to tell a story. Limiting the elements at play adds a measure of gravity to each decision, and every detail about the paper, the viscosity of the paint, micro variations in hues, and even the sharpness of the point on a skewer matters. I’ve found that the more restrictions I put in place when I paint, the freer my work has become, allowing a tension to form between the organic and prescribed. Rather than sketch before starting a new piece, I spend time with the paper and begin to visualize possibilities. From there, I can expand the work incrementally. Whether I’m working in an adapted form of pointillism, playing with opacity and hue, or building patterns through repeating shape, the work evolves in its own time. It is an intentionally open process of discovery that seeks to uncover the greatest potential of the basest elements we have at our disposal”. - Kate SnowCategory
