About Kathe Madrigal

I am an artist painting in oils. I love large scale paintings and do many by commission as they are hard to store. I am influenced by the Abstract Expressionists of the 60's and how the application of paint can be used as self-therapy and to engage viewers emotionally at the same time. Currently, in 2019, I am painting the relationship between nature’s ability to create order out of chaos and subsequently, the forces of nature that destroy it. My process begins with reading. A lot of reading. It ends with a piece that puts two opposing ideas together creating a singular voice of beauty and structure. My whole portfolio can be seen at http://www.kathemadrigal.com. Updates on new works and shows are at Instagram- @Katsu_art and for Prints on Acrylic, please visit my shop at http://etsy.com/shop/KatsuArtPrints

Education:

I received my BFA from U.C. Santa Barbara. I continued post-grad studies at U.C. Los Angeles which led me to start a business in large scale murals, Trompe l'oeil and faux finishes. Very big in the 90's.
Currently, I show at Gloria Delson Contemporary Art in Los Angeles and I am represented by SourceArt.com and ArtDimensionsOnline.com for residential, commercial and entertainment rentals.
Originals can be bought via these resources for projects, or bought through Saatchiart.com
