About this artwork
A clean palette of white with vibrant blues, greens and bits of warm orange using direct mark-making.
As a painter, the artist approaches every blank canvas with no preconceived ideas. It’s that invitation to the unknown that begins the process. Recalling a place or a moment of time, she enters the canvas with swaths of paint and loose line drawings. There is often a reference to pull from - such as a landscape or a nostalgic memory. Layers… of paint create depth and mystery while brush marks and pencil lines feel raw and exposed. The interplay of color is organically and purposefully mixed. Paint is applied as thin washes for transparency and thick and heavy to create textural surfaces. Spills and splatters are often encouraged and incorporated into the composition.
This artwork is ready to hang. It has been signed and dated on the back.
Works by the artist are part of public and private collections worldwide, including USA, UK, China, and Europe.

« Art making for me is about capturing a moment, not what is seen, but what is unseen. »
Katherine Bello is an award-winning artist based in the United States whose paintings have been widely exhibited nationally. She describes her abstractions as being inspired by nature, as well as a sense of place, time, and emotion. For Bello, they are poetic expressions of that "in-between" space, that space that exisits amidst reality and imagination.
