Colour Wave

A large square canvas abstract expressionist painting from 'The Calm to the Storm Collection' Calm serene minimalism to high abstract expression, this collection takes it all in.

In creating this piece, I wanted to embody the raw, unfiltered emotions that surge within us. Using vibrant blues, deep ochres, and tranquil greens, I layered acrylics in dynamic strokes to convey a tempestuous sea meeting a serene earthy coastal shoreline. It's a visual representation of our emotional landscapes—chaotic yet harmonious. This artwork invites viewers to find balance within dissonance, mirroring the tumultuous yet beautiful nature of human experiences. Painted in bright blue, earthy undertones, sun yellow, pink, bottle green, orange and aqua.

Kathleen’s pieces bring the outdoors indoors, with her gentle pinks, dynamic blues and turquoise greens adding a sense of peace to people’s lives. Kathleen has a deep connection to mother nature and can only explain her practice as a need to paint everyday, expressing impressions, feelings and experiences in her daily life. Rhee’s personal style has an atmospheric, powerful, mesmerising touch that she achieves by using subtle colour, depth and descriptive detail.

Born and rise on the coastal hinterland between the Gold Coast and Brisbane she grew up spending all of her free time out in nature. When Kathleen is not painting she is spending time outdoors, at the beach, in the rainforest or looking up at the sky. Colours of her natural surrounds and the sense of calm and joy it brings is what inspires her work. Kathleen combines colour staining, sketching, splattering, layering and painting with a brush to create her works. She enjoys working on a variety of canvas, paper with acrylic, oils and ink.
