About the Item

Kristy Chettle (American, born 1968) "Koi Pond" 2024 Oil Paint, Canvas, Stretcher Bars The artist signed the back of the painting. In Koi Pond, Kristy Chettle dissolves the boundaries of form, pulling the viewer into a drifting rhythm of motion and light. Slashes of vermilion animate the surface like fleeting glimpses of koi beneath rippling water, while cool pools of blue, green, and white evoke reflections, shadow, and submerged depth. The painting resists stillness, suggesting instead a constant shifting—a moment in nature never fixed, never silent. It is not about seeing the fish, but sensing them. About the Artist: As a California native (b. 1968, Los Angeles, CA), Kristy Chettle’s paintings explore reflective and thought-provoking themes of nature, transformation, and self-empowerment. Using only her hands and an occasional palette knife, she paints in multiple layers, sometimes scraping off the paint with her fingers only to reapply a new color later, resulting in a deep texture and raw motion. Occasionally, she scrawls her thoughts and emotions into the canvas or uses recycled paper or old screens to catch the next layer of pain, enhancing each piece's depth and visual interest. Each element is thoughtfully considered and placed as a reflection of her life and experiences. Working primarily with complementary colors, her paintings are lively and raw, with color vibrating throughout from layers deep within the work. Kristy has been a professional abstract artist for many years. Her artwork hangs in the homes of those who appreciate art that reflects expressive motion and color with thick layers of texture and meaning. Inspired by some of the greats—Picasso and Van Gogh in particular—she aspires to replicate the depth and life that their works portray.
