About the Item
Winding paths between wind shaped trees explore illusive margins of atmosphere and form. Subtle edges of earth, tree and sky, seem to dissolve and reappear, caught at the moment when boundaries are undetermined and reality is malleable, like the point between dream and reality.
Beginning with under-painting, Kean modulates the intensity of light that spreads from the center of the canvas, while lines and shapes are defined and then partially obscured. Layer is painted over layer, resulting in unexpected gradations and tones. Imagination’s alchemy transforms the recognizable into delicately nuanced layers of color and tone, to gently invoke mystery, sensation, and mood.
Original oil on gallery wrapped linen, mounted on panel, cradled by 1 1/2-inch-deep stretchers. It is wired with finger friendly wire, is ready to install and comes with an official certificate of authenticity. The edges are hand painted, providing a finished look, suitable for framing, or beautiful left as is.
As a painter, Katherine Kean seeks 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 paintings aim to capture these fleeting moments in time and reveal the serene center that can arise in the midst of nature’s turbulence. Katherine Kean 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 Bloomingdale's 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.
A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this painting benefits the Point Lobos Foundation and the California State Parks Foundation.

Storm Seeker atmospheric landscape clouds
By Katherine Kean
Located in Palm Desert, CA
Driving into a storm causing a moment of wonder and excitement. Original oil on gallery wrapped linen, on 1 1/2 inch deep stretchers. The edges are hand painted, providing a finished look, suitable for framing, or beautiful left as is. From the artist: As a painter, I seek out these moments in nature; when the wind picks up and the clouds gather, sparking a world of heightened mood and sensation. My paintings aim to capture these fleeting moments in time and reveal the serene center that can arise in the midst of natures turbulence. A childhood of moving and traveling around the United States has shaped Katherine Keans vision, as have journeys to eastern Africa, Mexico, Scotland, France and painting jaunts all over Keans now native California. Born in West Virginia, moving later to Ohio and New Jersey, but growing up mainly in Massachusetts, she attended Rhode Island School of Design, graduating with a BFA in Film, Video and Animation. Long fascinated by the intersection of order and chaos in the natural world, Katherine Kean skillfully uses observation, memory, and interpretation to translate her love of natures kinetic phenomena into paintings that capture the often turbulent emotions within light, weather, and landscapes. Her work has exhibited in museums and galleries across the United States, including the LACMA Art Rental and Sales Gallery and the Brand Library Art Gallery in Los Angeles...
