About the Item

Kristy Chettle (American, born 1968) "Lotus" 2017 Oil Paint, Canvas, Stretcher Bars The artist signed the back of the painting. "Lotus" is a striking oil painting by Kristy Chettle, sized at 48" x 60". It bursts with bold colors and movement, true to the abstract expressionist style it represents. Warm reds, oranges, and yellows swirl around the canvas, drawing the eye inward, much like the petals of a lotus flower. Streaks of blue and white cut through the warmth, adding contrast and depth. The painting feels alive, full of energy and the promise of new beginnings, just like the lotus flower that rises from the mud each day. The artist has layered the paint in a way that makes you want to reach out and touch the vibrant textures. 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
