ARTIST STATEMENT

Kathryn Mapes Turner was born as part of the fourth generation of her family’s dude ranch, located inside Grand Teton National Park in Jackson Hole, WY. Surrounded by mountains, she gained a deep understanding for the natural world at an early age. Her paintings are an expression of this profound appreciation of wildness. In this body of work, I am exploring my relationship with wildlife and their relationship with their environs. To me, wildlife is enchanting so I try to represent their forms with a sense of awe, retaining a realm of mystery. Wildlife possess a grounded nature of “being-ness,” dwelling in neither the future or the past. The creative process requires the same. It is my hope that my paintings and drawings can, similarly, draw the viewer into the present moment. When I paint wildlife, I start with comprehensive studies of the subject - their form, anatomy, the way they move, their habitat, their ecology. Then, I allow the creative process to take over. My role is to respond to the natural current of that particular painting, allowing it to evolve. As a result, each painting has its own unique movement and energy. - Kathryn Turner WWW.SEWE.COM | WWW.TURNERFINEART.COM
