Kathy Ready

Enjoying the open interpretation that abstraction brings, Kathy works from mental snapshots of her physical and emotional environment, intuitively extracting the essence of what has been captured. She fills her canvases with broad brushstrokes, combining visceral colour and form. Each painting is built up in layers and as the layering process repeats itself, Kathy centers on making the colours come alive – the painting gaining more depth and detail until completion.

Kathy has been exhibiting since 1996 in both Australia and New Zealand and is currently based in Auckland, New Zealand.
