About the Item
"Between the Drops" is a contemporary landscape painting
that vividly captures the view from inside a car on a rainy day. This
artwork showcases a suburban street lined with trees, houses, and utility
poles, all seen through a slightly blurred car window. The focal point of
the painting is the intricate detailing of raindrops on the window. Each
droplet is meticulously rendered, creating a unique texture and depth that
provides a sense of realism and immersion for the viewer.
The background scenery, intentionally kept slightly out of focus, draws
attention to the captivating beauty of the raindrops. The artist's use of a
muted color palette, primarily featuring shades of green, blue, and grey,
effectively conveys the somber yet serene mood of a rainy day. The
painting's composition highlights the contrast between the detailed
foreground and the suggestive forms of the suburban landscape beyond,
enhancing the overall atmosphere of the piece.
Inspired by the artist's renewed appreciation for rain after months of
drought, "Between the Drops" captures the sparkling beauty of raindrops on
a windshield. This artwork invites the viewer to pause and appreciate the
simple, often overlooked moments of everyday life.
This original painting is created in oil on gallery wrapped linen, on 1 1/2
inch deep stretchers. The edges are hand painted, providing a finished
look. Included is a floating black wood frame, wired with finger friendly
wire, and ready to hang.
Katherine Kean’s paintings seek moments of breath-taking transition in
nature; a gathering of clouds or changing tides; times when the elements of
the landscape combine with the alchemy of imagination to illuminate the
world of heightened mood and sensation. Her work aims to capture these
fleeting moments in time and reveal the serene center that can arise amid
nature's turbulence. She has exhibited in museums and galleries across the
United States and has been acquired by many private and corporate
collections. She has been honored to have her work selected for
Bloomingdales in Santa Monica, California, Schiffer's 100 Artists of the
West.

Rain Dots landscape impressionistic
By Katherine Kean
Located in Palm Desert, CA
Drops of rain reflect bright lights and punctuate the soft, tonal background of a rainy day. The windshield highlights the contrast of an intimate experience within and the effect of the elements outside. Both painterly and playful while striking a midpoint between pure representation and an emphasis on the picture plane. Painted on a cradled gesso board panel, with 1 1/2 inch deep, smooth wood edges. Suitable for framing or beautiful left as is. A childhood of moving and traveling around the United States has shaped Katherine Kean's vision, as have journeys to eastern Africa, Mexico, Scotland, France and painting jaunts all over Kean's now native California. Born in West Virginia, moving later to Ohio and New Jersey, but growing up mainly in Massachusetts, she attended Rhode Island School of Design, graduating with a BFA in Film, Video and Animation. Long fascinated by the intersection of order and chaos in the natural world, Katherine Kean skillfully uses observation, memory, and interpretation to translate her love of natures kinetic phenomena into paintings that capture the often turbulent emotions within light, weather, and landscapes. Her work has exhibited in museums and galleries across the United States, including the LACMA Art Rental and Sales Gallery and the Brand Library Art Gallery in Los Angeles...

Liquid Sun Splash landscape impressionistic
By Katherine Kean
Located in Palm Desert, CA
���If you don't like the weather in New England now, just wait a few minutes.� - Mark Twain The weather in Hawaii provides a similar effect, or rather than waiting as it changes, a person can experience radiant sunshine and pouring rain simultaneously. This one in a series of "windshield paintings"is painterly, brushy, a little bit textured, and slightly raised, particularly for the drops. Painted on gallery wrapped linen, on 1 1/2 inch deep stretchers. The edges are hand painted, providing a finished look, suitable for framing, or beautiful left as is.

Confetti Rain contemporary impressionistic
By Katherine Kean
Located in Palm Desert, CA
Katherine Kean: Rain on the windshield makes a fine mist that creates a sparkling, atmospheric veil, between you and the rest of the world. This one in a series of "windshield paintings" is painterly, brushy, a little bit textured, and slightly raised, particularly for the drops. It is painted on gallery wrapped linen, with hand painted edges. From the artist: An unexpected, but welcome rain, as experienced from a place of comfort. My windshield paintings aim to capture these fleeting and intimate moments in time and reveal the serene center that can arise in the midst of natures turbulence.
