About Artwork: This painting is one of a series of works depicting women. My work is both figurative and abstract. I attempt to convey a lot about mood and tone, using color.

About Artist: Kathy Jones, born in San Francisco and educated at Stanford University, draws significant influence from her experiences as a Californian and her admiration for the Bay Area Figurative painters. Her work is centered around themes of silence, solitude, space, and shadows capturing the quiet moments between actions. She often portrays individuals in states of waiting, observing, pausing, or transitioning from one place to another. For Jones, the surface of the painting holds as much importance as the image itself, and she is continually experimenting with different textures and surfaces. She explores the relationships between colors and the unexpected contrasts that emerge during the process, ensuring that the layers and textures are rich and exotic while the colors remain luminous and mysterious. Jones embraces an unpredictable approach to her paintings, allowing backgrounds and moods to evolve organically as the work progresses. Her goal is to create art that is both challenging and thought-provoking, hoping that viewers are inspired to bring their own personal history to the piece and create their own narratives.
