Early Spring 2022 by Katherine Russell original artwork oil on canvas Katherine Russell is a London based Painter. Moving away from previous body of work which focused on mass media and was primarily figurative. This body of work oscillates between the figurative and the abstract in dissolving the constraints of the concrete with an exploration of colour and form and movement not previously approached in this fashion by the artist.
