Applied Pure: photogram of hand in developer

Closer | Paintings of 2024

In January 2024, Kate had now been in her cottage in the countryside for a full cycle of the sun. She began painting pale blossoms and petals again, inspired by the blush of light of the petals, breaking through the winter darkness.

Soft, pale painting of a spring of blossom in a pale cream jug, on a white table cloth with scalloped edge hanging over the front the table.

Winter to Summer Series

Oil paintings on gessoed panels, painted over the course of 6 months, from January to July 2023. Trying to use minimal marks and paint to conjure the effect of fullness and space. Like Vermeer meeting Zen.

Fresh white blossom seems to explode out of the pitch dark background which is the darkest of midnight blues. The blossom seems as if it's held into place with a shiny (yet tarnished) silver vase, yet there are no stems to the branches, just petals and leaves. The vase is placed on the front right of an unfolded white fine cloth which again has no structure of a table coming form under it, but seems to float into the space.
