About the Item

Berkeley Bay with wind whipped storm clouds as the setting sun burns a bright disk through the clouds. Painted in oil on gallery wrapped linen mounted on wood panel. The edges are hand painted and the painting is wired with finger friendly coated wire, ready to install. From the artist: As a painter, I 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. My paintings aim to capture these fleeting moments in time and reveal the serene center that can arise in the midst of nature�۪s turbulence. 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 nature�۪s 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, 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 Americas Paint the Parks, Manhattan Arts Healing Arts Internationals Celebrate the Healing Power of Art and the National Weather Center 2015 Biennale.

Billowing contemporary landscape clouds
By Katherine Kean
Located in Palm Desert, CA
Inspired by always moving, always changing, epic blue and cloudy skies that bring "billows upon billows upon billows" of clouds.
