Time for Reflection

This is another painting in my "dance" series. As I was wandering around the dance studio, this young lady caught my attention as she enjoyed a quiet moment. I'm told reflections are some of the most difficult images to capture. It wasn't easy, but I really like the "feel" of this painting.

About Kathleen

Kathleen (Kay) Eaton left a career in graphic design and marketing to focus, full-time, on fine art oil painting, with an emphasis on portraits and figurative works. She also participates in a variety of plein air events throughout the country.

“After a lifetime in creative fields, I decided I didn’t want to get to my death bed and wish I had attempted to develop my skill as a fine artist,” she says. In that light, her work has a certain spirituality to it that fascinates and captivates her audience.

She has studied with Daniel Gerhartz, Everett Raymond Kinstler, C.W. Mundy, Nancy Guzik, Rose Frantzen, Judith Carducci, Peggy Baumgaertner, James Hempel and Andrew Orr.

In 2012, she was artist-in-residence at the Neville Public Museum in Green Bay, WI, and in 2013 she had a solo exhibit in the main lobby of the University of Michigan Health System in Ann Arbor, MI. Her work can be seen at River's End Gallery in Waukesha, WI, and at DCF Gallery in Grosse Point, MI, as well as on her website at www.kathleeneatonart.com.
