Artwork details

Title
Wallflower Monotype (Blue/Yellow/Shimmer Black No. 1)
Description

Catherine Howe's "Wallflower" monotypes are made using acrylic inks on black, acid free Curious Metallics 300 gsm. paper. The surface of the paper imparts a subtle shimmer which contrasts interestingly with the matte finish of the inks. As with much of Howe's work, the wildly gestural image of a flower hovers on the edge of complete abstraction.

The Artist

Catherine Howe

Catherine Howe (b. 1959, Buffalo, New York) is a New York–based painter whose lush, gestural works occupy the territory between representation and abstraction. Her paintings and monotypes combine fluid gestures, sensuous color, and experimental materials. Howe’s work, though it visually recalls 17th‑century still lifes, is ultimately about the material act of painting rather than depiction or narrative. What first appears to be flowers, figures, or food dissolves on closer inspection into swirling brushwork and layered color, so that recognizable motifs quickly give way to abstraction.
