2018
About the Item
Kristy Chettle's "Rising" is a 72" x48" oil on canvas that embodies the raw, emotive power of abstract expressionism infused with figurative elements. Swirls of dark and moody blues and greys clash with vivid streaks of red, yellow, and white, evoking a sense of tumultuous emotion and a struggle toward transcendence. The figure's pose suggests emergence and growth as if breaking free from the chaos surrounding it. This painting captures the resilience of the human spirit, and its capacity to rise amidst adversity. Chettle's use of bold, impulsive brushwork and a rich, contrasting color palette emphasizes the theme of rebirth and renewal, making "Rising" a compelling portrayal of determination and hope.
About the Artist:
Kristy Chettle is an abstract artist whose tactile approach to painting sets her apart. Born in Los Angeles, California in 1968, Chettle forgoes traditional brushes and palette knives, favoring the intimate connection of painting with her hands. Her works are characterized by deep textures, vibrant complimentary colors, and layers that carry a visceral sense of motion and raw emotion. Each piece is a reflection of her journey, interwoven with messages of environmental care and self-empowerment. Influenced by the likes of Picasso and Van Gogh, she strives to bring similar depth and life to her paintings. Her commitment to a green practice extends to using reclaimed wood and recycled canvases, minimizing her ecological footprint. Chettle's art, a vivid exploration of nature and transformation, resonates with those who seek expressive, meaningful compositions.
“Kristy is a unique master, her technique is quite authentic and inspiring: All of Kristy’s works are painted with her bare hands. There are no brushes or palette knives used, which adds to the immediacy and rawness of the painting.” –Alik Elzafon, American Art Gallery, Carmel, CA
