Artist Practice by ARMBRUST DARCH & KEYSER
Kayla White |
Three established artists, Matt Armbrust, Kayla White and Donna Keyser, present their daily practice of creating new work. Each artist has made 1-10 new pieces a day for two months all uncensored are on display at Confluence Gallery September 28- November 2, 2013. This is a great insight into the process of making art and exploring the roads not often taken. Notebooks sketches paint studies as well as finished work will be on display.
Kayla White grew up in the Methow Valley, WA she draws her inspiration from the outdoors and the history of the valley. Her experiences as a farmer’s daughter and through stories told of her ancestors who homesteaded here she explores ideas of home, work, play and the significant role that our physical surroundings have in our experiences, memories and perceptions of things. She explors the blurred line between what is real and imagined, present and past, and the tangible and intangible wherein representational forms are painted in heightened colors with bold brushstrokes until they almost become abstract. Kayla’s work suggests narratives that address larger ideas of human experiences and perceptions of the physical world.
Donna Keyser |
Donna Keyser is a local painter, designer and curator. She lives in Twisp and works from her studio at TwispWorks. She graduated from Cornish College of the arts where she studied printmaking, video art and painting. Her work explores visual, metaphoric and religious visions of paradise.
