"Reflections," a black, white and gray modern, abstract painting on canvas with applied threads with orange and reddish-orange washes, framed in a black wood hand painted frame by Kathi Robinson
In her own words, the artist describes the inspiration for this painting: "returning to the Hudson Valley in early spring, after spending my winter in Mexico, I began a painting using the colors and textures I was experiencing that were also extremely primal and almost dreamlike. Every morning I would build a fire in my wood stove, gaze at the warmth of the flames and stare out at the fog-wet landscape. This was to become my meditation, my reflection."
