About kelly norman

I have been a practicing artist for the past 15 years. Painting is part of my life and look forward to waking up in the morning and heading into my studio ready to confront the exciting creative challenges and investigations through the physical act of the painting process itself. Nature is a very big influence in my practice. Over the past year i have been working on a project combining painting and drawing at a place named white rocks, alamanos in cyprus These paintings and drawings investigate landscape and rockscape that are connected through line and the painting process. My new work continues the dialogue between the painting process and the picture and appear more gestural and more intuitive and explore the idea that a painting could be fulfilled in a simple self investigation of the medium. In some of my paintings I will add simple motifs and letters over layers of paint and different washes to create a narrative where the yiayia continues her journey though each painting. I like to Accept nature for what it, therefore putting everything into perspective for me. “Today as a society we our constantly seeing life through a screen not accepting time as now, thinking about the past and future...” “I am painting rocks that I see, the conflicting idea of being at the edge of the land excites me, calms me but also it terrifies and torments me.” I believe Artfinder would give me a more international platform to market and promote my art work.
