In Between Days " In Between Days 1 " by Katie Willes

In between Days 1 calls to mind the work of the distinguished 20th-century American artist Joan Mitchell, renowned for her contributions to painting, printmaking, and other paper-based media. This large-scale work on canvas mirrors Mitchell's gestural abstraction technique with a focus on expressive brushstrokes and a flurry of colour. In this work, marks, lines, and shapes are purposely non-representational, yet they convey great emotion. Combined with a vivid colour scheme in indigo, violet, cerulean, and moss, this accomplished painting invites the viewer to participate in an emotional experience.
