About the Item

Artist Comments
This abstract painting features rich jewel tones created with transparent and translucent pigments. It gives the composition an atmospheric luminosity and a sense of depth and quiet mystery. Its elongated vertical format adds a contemporary touch to the piece.


About the Artist
Karen’s abstract paintings are best described as an exploration in color. Often monochromatic, her work is a meditative and serene improvisation in the movement and depth of paint. Whether executed in earthy shades or vibrant tones, each painting evokes a different mood for the viewer’s contemplation. Karen’s body of work gives a gentle nod to the Color Field movement of the 20th Century, grounding her portfolio solidly within the evolving story of contemporary art.

  • Suite for Four Hands, Abstract Painting
    Located in San Francisco, CA

    Artist Comments
    Artist Linda Cassidy employs organically organized geometric forms in an alluring abstract. She uses organic shapes in a distinct dance-like relationship with one another. An evocative feeling permeates within her expressively distinct outlines—shapes in shades of deep purple and red balance the muted colorway.
