Kate Petley Drawings and Watercolor Paintings

American, b. 1954
Kate Petley’s image-making process is guided by a will to transform. In her paintings and prints Petley harnesses physiological responses to color and light, inviting feelings of joy, quietude and wonder. Her works on canvas belong to a long lineage of painters concerned with the luminous surface as a space for absorption, a space increasingly usurped by the ever-present backlit screen. Petley has been featured in thirty solo exhibitions, including a solo exhibition at the University of Colorado Art Museum in 2021, and has completed numerous public commissions and installations. She participated in PhotoIreland 2017 and is a Ucross Foundation Fellowship recipient. Petley was a recipient of an NEA Rockefeller Foundation Grant in 1990, and has been awarded residencies at Mayer of Munich Glass studio in Germany and Platteforum Denver. Her work has been exhibited at MCA Denver, the Museum of South Texas, the Nicolaysen Museum, Fotofest Houston, the Martin Museum at Baylor University, Museum of the Southwest, and the Arlington Museum of Art.
