Kylee’s
work has primarily been focused on nature, stylistically ranging from
realistic landscapes to more abstract paintings. She works with colour
and form, often playing with opposites like curves and straight edges,
or light and dark tones to create contrast within her work. Painting
abstracted art allows her to escape from reality, creating something
completely original from a place only in her mind. While she enjoys the
freedom of expression involved in this process, it also brings her great
joy to recreate the beauty that surrounds her using representational
intricacy within her landscape paintings.
Kylee is driven by the desire to see what she will create next as her work is continually changing and evolving.
