Kristy Chettle
'Eve' Large Nude Woman Figurative Contemporary Oil On Wood by Kristy

2019

About the Item

73" x 41" \ 185.4 cm x 104 cm. "Eve", a striking 73" x 41" oil on wood by Kristy Chettle, presents a bold abstract figurative journey into the essence of femininity and origin. Chettle's palette is rich with deep nocturnal blues and earthy yellows, suggesting the duality of night and day, shadow and light. Swirls of golden hues seem to animate the figure, hinting at the life force and creative power traditionally associated with the figure of Eve. The artwork's vertical orientation and the contrast of dark and light colors convey a sense of emergence and depth as if the subject is both revealed and concealed within the same breath. This piece is not just a visual experience but an emotional dialogue, offering a contemporary interpretation of the timeless narrative of beginnings, temptations, and the intrinsic connection to nature. About the Artist: Kristy Chettle is an abstract artist whose tactile approach to painting sets her apart. Born in Los Angeles, California in 1968, Chettle forgoes traditional brushes and palette knives, favoring the intimate connection of painting with her hands. Her works are characterized by deep textures, vibrant complimentary colors, and layers that carry a visceral sense of motion and raw emotion. Each piece is a reflection of her journey, interwoven with messages of environmental care and self-empowerment. Influenced by the likes of Picasso and Van Gogh, she strives to bring similar depth and life to her paintings. Her commitment to a green practice extends to using reclaimed wood and recycled canvases, minimizing her ecological footprint. Chettle's art, a vivid exploration of nature and transformation, resonates with those who seek expressive, meaningful compositions. “Kristy is a unique master, her technique is quite authentic and inspiring: All of Kristy’s works are painted with her bare hands. There are no brushes or palette knives used, which adds to the immediacy and rawness of the painting.” –Alik Elzafon, American Art Gallery, Carmel, CA 1-of-1, available at the American Art Gallery, Carmel-by-the-Sea, California.
