About the Item

"Vivid Bloom" is a contemporary impressionist floral painting showing the ephemeral beauty of a blooming waterlily as it unfolds in mesmerizing detail. In this impressionistic composition, the petals of the blossom radiate with vibrant shades of pink and red. A hint of luminescent yellow draws the gaze inward, invoking the heart of the bloom — aglow with inner vitality. Surrounding this floral tableau, the embrace of verdant greens and serene blues unveil a watery realm. The background, alive with rhythmic brushwork, transforms into a tranquil pond mirrored by the vastness of sky and foliage. Here, the colors weave a tapestry—a serene interplay of elements. This 8inch by 8 inch artwork is painted on 1 ½ inch cradled wood gesso board. The edges are left with their natural wood finish, suitable for framing or beautiful left as is. It is 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.
