Catherine Spencer

​My work ranges in size, as I respond to my source material and challenge the perception of scale. I begin each painting like a new scientific discovery with no specific image in mind. I continue to examine my progressing abstract environment and intuitively respond after each decision.

Each blank canvas goes through a continuous process of layering oil paint and then removing it to expose intriguing spaces, inviting exploration into a new unfamiliar terrain. The biomorphic forms are graphic and organic, forming vibrant sensual compositions. There is an element of an internal reflection during this process as I begin to fully realize the reality of each piece.
