SUMMARY:Painting from Life by Tricia Kaman
DESCRIPTION:public reception Friday\, August 9\, 6-8 p.m. \nTricia Kaman is a traditionally trained artist and instructor\, specializing in portrait and figurative paintings in oil and pastel. Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally and has garnered numerous awards\, such as the Ohio Arts Council Governors Awards for the Arts “Individual Artist” award\, and the Art Design Consultants “Realist Artist of the Year”. Her work has been featured in a variety of publications and one of her figurative oil grisaille paintings\, “Study from Behind\,” is included in the Museum of Northeast Ohio Art’s permanent collection. Tricia attended Cleveland’s Cooper School of Art\, Cleveland Institute of Art\, and the Art Students League\, New York. She continues her studies at Studio Incamminati\, Philadelphia\, Pennsylvania. The Tricia Kaman Studio/Gallery is located in the Historic Schoolhouse in Little Italy\, Cleveland\, Ohio. Here she continues to paint and host workshops for aspiring artists in the area. \nThe following is contributed by by Mitchell Baker Martin. \nThere is endless beauty to be found in the natural world. Unless that beauty is directly perceived with one’s own sight\, it is filtered\, interpreted\, and represented\, either by an artist or a machine. For many years\, the only way one could witness distant lands was through the interpretation of a painter’s brush\, but now\, after the advent of mechanical and digital imagery\, the utility of painting from life has diminished\, leaving only the emotional impact of seeing the world through an artist’s eyes. The very best artists help us to see things that we would otherwise be blind to. \nFor decades\, Tricia Kaman has worked tirelessly to capture and share the beauty she sees in a scenic view or a model’s pose. Hers is a vision of color and form\, shadows and soft gradients that reveal themselves only to careful observers. \nThis August\, Tricia’s work will be appearing at the Ashtabula Arts Center as part of her new collection\, “Painting From Life | A Retrospective”. The collection is a result of Tricia turning her artist’s gaze upon her own body of work\, finding the connecting threads and quiet origins of techniques that would become her signature style. \nMany of the subjects of Tricia’s paintings no longer look as they did when painted. Trees have changed color\, shorelines have eroded\, and some models have passed on. In this way\, Tricia’s work allows one to see back across time itself\, but in an intensely personal way that no photograph can achieve. Viewers can travel through the decades together with Tricia—one still\, quiet moment at a time. \nViewers are invited to take part in Tricia’s journey\, either through the purchase of an original work or one of the many beautiful giclée prints available. Tracy’s Space and The Wedding Gown will be making a rare appearance\, together again after Tracy’s return from Agora Gallery New York. \nThe Ashtabula Arts Center gallery is open Monday-Thursday\, 9 a.m.-9 p.m.\, Friday 9 a.m.-4 p.m.\, and Saturday\, 9 a.m.-1 p.m.\, as well as before productions and during intermission. Admission to the gallery is free.
