| 'CIRCLE OF SECRETS' - This abstract painting from Kathryn Hart is part of her "Circle of Secrets" exhibit showing at Habitat Gallery. |
Abstract painter Kathryn Hart paints from the heart.
The paintings featured in her new exhibit - "Circle of Secrets" - showing at the Habitat Gallery and Studio lean heavily on emotions and conflicts. Her paintings pulse with an untold story; scrapings and scratchings dragged through thick paint gives a glimpse of what's beneath the service, according to a press release.
"Combining both expressionism and conceptual art into her paintings, Hart begins boldly and energetically, focusing on nuance and sensitivity in the latter stages," says a profile promoting her show. "Hart's delight in the creative sojourn is evident...a gestalt of feeling, idea and energy emoting onto the canvas. The heart of the work is deeply personal emotion."
After quickly establishing a national reputation as an award-winning, representational painter, Hart turned to abstract work and conceptual-based painting. Her influences include Rothko, deKooning, Pollock and Degas.
Hart's work has been exhibited in solo and group invitational exhibitions across the country and is regularly included in juried shows. Emerging as a nationally acknowledged contemporary painter, Hart has received numerous national and regional awards including Best of Show (2010) and the Bronze award (2008) from the Colorado State Exhibition which hung in Colorado History Museum, 1st prize from the American Juried Art Salon in 2006, Best of Show 3 years running from the Colorado Springs Art Guild and other top awards from coast to coast. Ms. Hart is a signature member of the prestigious National Watercolor Society and many other notable organizations of achievement. She is represented by Habitat Gallery in Denver and Gallery Two-Ten in Colorado Springs, CO.
In her artist statement, Hart says she paints from the gut, not a specific image in her head.
"I express myself through shape, color and texture," Hart says in her artist statement. "My works are expressions of the human condition, all of its emotional crags and crevices, what we want others to see and what we hide...who we are when we are alone."
Where: Habitat Gallery and Studio, 828 Santa Fe Drive.
When: Through June 13
