Artist Statement - Kelly Rossetti

I work abstractly from my feelings and from experiences that have affected me.  I have long been enamored with the human form and consistently work towards capturing a certain feeling or emotion that comes from the figure.  Whether it be loose and expressive figurative drawings or expressive paintings, I strive to find the beauty of the form.  For my non-representational abstract & landscape work, I like to start with an unpremeditated blank canvas and let the work begin to emerge organically.  I continue to build on what appears giving form to the chaos and building the piece into a painting that will hopefully, transmit a feeling to the viewer.  I paint to reach the place within me that is free of controls and boundaries and thrive on the challenges of exploring new themes and ideas.

A career in the fashion industry has also influenced my aesthetic approach.  As an executive in sales and merchandising, I worked side by side with design to forecast fashion and analyze color and color trends. This exposure and training of continuously evaluating color combinations and coordinating entire collections has directed my color choices and has helped to fine-tune my sense of color.
