Barbkat Art--Kathy Metcalf, Artist

Dallas, TX

Various contemporary selections in acrylic of the artist's interpretation of texture, movement and color. Most paintings done by the artist using only her finger as her brush. Must see to appreciate the texture of her work.

BOX & CIRCLE SERIES
 In this series I tried to create as many different ways to use color with boxes and circles as possible. Each painting is the same basic theme (a box grid containing circles), but each painting is different in that the configuration of the grid varies.

SERIES IN BLACK AND WHITE
 A collection of paintings showing that black and white really are colors and can be used in a variety of ways.

JUST COLOR
 If you like color....then, this is the place to be

FACES
 Every once in a while I have to go off the deep end and do something just a wee bit out of the ordinary

TEXTURE
 Hard to photograph, but a joy to behold in person. Heavy raised texture created with the stroke of my finger.

FOILS
 Just another step in my experimentation with things that are a little different.....who said that "all" art had to be created with paint?

PAPER SERIES
 This is a collection of paintings using paper instead of my usual "secret' texture method. Different feelings. Different emotions. Different looks.

LIGNET ROSET FURNITURE GALLERY
 Thank you to my friend, Alexa Grossman, of Lignet Roset Furniture for allowing me to photograph my art at her furniture gallery. Lignet Roset has two stores in Dallas, one at 4516 Mclinney Ave and the other in the Design District.

About the artist
Barbkat Art -- artist KATHY METCALF
...ME..... I've always had trouble with "bios" and I never really know where to begin or exactly what to say. I am a native born and bred Dallasite, so I guess this makes me a true Southerner....like it or not. The first 50 years of my life I have spent learning about life and now I'm using the last years to express what I've learned and seen and I'm able to put that reflection into my art. There is no formal art education tucked under my belt, just trial and error. Actually, being self-taught has been fun....

BIG BANG
Just finished another painting for my Black and White series. Thought this looked like what the big bang episode might have looked like....hence the name for the painting. I know that it may...
A NEW PIECE
Just finished another new piece for my foil collection. I entitled it THE RUNNER and it's easy to see in person, but like most of my works, it's hard to capture in a photograph. Stare at it...
TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY
I know that telling the world that it's my birthday may sound a bit strange, but today is a milestone for me.....I turn 60. I never thought in a million years that I'd make it this far in life....
