Kris Ekstrand Paintings
American
Kris Ekstrand is a painter and printmaker whose work is a deep meditation on landscape, memory, and the quiet beauty of the natural world. Rooted in the estuarine flats of Washington’s Skagit Valley and the gently undulating hills near her home in Petaluma, California, her practice reflects a lifelong attentiveness to place. Whether through monotype or oil paint, Kris captures more than just scenery—she distills mood, movement, and atmosphere into grounded, soulful compositions.
Her visual language is subtle yet powerful, guided by the rhythms of light across land and water, the edges of fields, and the ever-shifting skies overhead. Each piece feels like a still breath—an invitation to pause and look more closely at the world around us. Drawing from her background in design and her decades of experience in the arts, Kris brings both discipline and intuition to her studio practice, allowing the land to speak through form, texture, and tone.
When she’s not working in the studio, Kris shares her time with her husband, writer Carl Molesworth, and their two Norwich terriers. Whether walking through open fields or tending to her creative practice, she finds daily inspiration in the natural rhythms that surround her—quiet moments that continue to inform her evolving body of work.to

"Being There" Original Oil Painting by Robert White, Frameless Display
Located in Encino, CA
“Being There,” an original oil on canvas by Robert K. White, is a piece for the true collector. White’s careful attention to detail and vivid use of browns and reds project from the painting, immediately capturing the viewer's attention and highlighting the artist's keen ability to capture emotion and life - all in a brushstroke. White's talent for depicting light and shadow provides the foundation for him to deliver subjects and scenes to the viewer's eye. This masterful work would make a great addition to an art collection and enhance most any home, perfect for those who have an affinity for cityscapes, theater, and architecture.
In the artist’s own words, “I don’t paint what is inside of me; I paint what I see outside of me. I’m an observer. If I see something and I feel an affinity for it, something just clicks in my head. I’ll make the decision right then and there to paint that particular subject during that particular moment. It’s a perfect moment. Once something has caught my eye and I’ve heard the “perfect” click, it’s like a photograph has been taken in my mind’s eye. I only have a few days of clarity with that image. I have to start the painting quickly or else it will be gone and I will lose that image forever.”
