Katie's Statement

     Through my abstract land, sky and seascapes I invite the viewer to enter his or her own personal journey.  The viewer is compelled to travel deep within the contemplative suggestions of space, time and movement.  Multiple  layers of paint manipulated throughout the canvas move the viewer deep within and invites the viewer to be where he or she wishes to be.  

     In my Meditative Series the use of multi-colored, consistent and precise strokes spread randomly over the canvas bring the viewer into a meditative state of just being.  The intentional lack of any suggestion of imagery encourages the viewer to move in and out of the void, helping to clear the mind and just pause in the now. 

    In my Chakra Series, the intention is to help facilitate balance.  The seven main chakras are subtle energy channels that run through the body and are represented by certain colors.  Both color and the movement of color  help facilitate balance.    My chakra paintings are either single individual color paintings representing specific areas of energy or as one piece representing a balanced system. 

     I enjoy the challenge and flow of the creative process and hope you enjoy my work
