Artist Kathryn Spinelli-Dunn

Originals

My latest and on going pieces, mainly monochromatic,reflect a time of nostalgia, an era in history , though long gone, one to which I can identify longingly. Working from old photographs and charcoal adaptations I portray a period in history wherein life seemed simpler, sweeter and wonderfully American. From the innocent act of dressing oneself carefully before a bedroom mirror to witnessing the new sound of a New Orleans band, life in the early twentieth century has always excited and intrigued me. Though I use color sparingly to accentuate a mood most of my art is executed in shades of sepia and blue best suited for evoking that old world feel. E-Mail: artistkathy@richallen.net
