About the Item
Blue Grove’s dream inspired imagery invites viewers into a quiet, contemplative forest scene where the cool blue tones of the trees create a striking contrast against a softly glowing, warm background. At the center, a prominent tree stands tall with thick, textured bark in shades of blue, its bare branches twisting upward and outward in an expressive, almost sculptural way. Surrounding this focal point are slender trees sharing the same cool hue, their leafless forms contributing to a layered depth that feels both receptive and mysterious.
The background’s warm amber light provides a subtle radiance, suggesting the fleeting moments of dawn or dusk. This gentle illumination balances the composition, heightening the contrast between the coolness of the trees and the tranquility of the scene. In the foreground, a lush green field spreads out, sprinkled with delicate, pale round elements - small flowers or softly glowing orbs - that bring a tender, magical touch to the environment, hinting at unseen life and quiet wonder.
Measured at 36 by 48 inches and rendered in oil on linen, this piece captures an atmosphere where natural stillness blends with a dreamlike sense of calm and curiosity. The deliberate interplay of color and form encourages a paused moment of reflection, inviting the viewer to explore the subtle tension between reality and the ethereal within this serene grove. The painting’s gallery wrapped edges are hand painted, and wired with finger friendly wire, ready for hanging.
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, providing a visually and emotionally rich experience. 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 Coast II, Paint America's Paint the Parks, Manhattan Arts Healing Arts International's Celebrate the Healing Power of Art and the National Weather Center 2015 Biennale and the 2024 Hawai'i Surrealist Exhibit.
