About the Item

Kristin Cronic says of her work... I create large scale gestural paintings of nature forms. The live oaks of my birthplace, uprooted tree carcasses, and rock formations magnify the immense and fleeting emotional weight to which I am responding. I begin with observation but ultimately excavate from these static forms the emotional underpinnings of existence I often want to hide from, such as anguish, uncertainty, intrigue, and even that effervescent bubbling of joy. Nature’s disregard for these states returns them to just another aspect of being alive. My process layers contour drawing, fluid acrylic washes, and intuitive oil markmaking. Painting is a medium that allows me to catch the evidence of full body movement, as if it’s catching a moment. The scale of my work demands spatial commitment, which acts as a declaration of physical and emotional space, something I often resist occupying outside the studio. I approach color with a restrained palette and in the making, shake it off balance with unexpected hues. Compositions push toward extreme perspective, creating confrontational angles with the forms. Personally specific titles open the interpretations into more universal themes. My practice references the female abstract expressionists of the 1940’s, in particular Joan Mitchell, Helen Frankenthaler, and Elaine de Kooning. These women liberated the form into emotion and color. Studying their work opened my observational painting to emphasize playfulness and honesty. Jenny Saville’s maternal figures hold unrelenting candidness and take up space. When I see trees, I often see mothers. Cecily Brown’s emotional interior spaces changed the way I think about a scene surrounding the viewer. I tend to hide from the parts of myself that are hardest to hold. I paint in order to stand in the spectrum of those things without having to resolve them.
