The Artist

Kelly Reemtsen

Kelly Reemtsen is a contemporary American artist, best known for her paintings and prints of elaborately 1950s styled women carrying household tools such as shovels, axes and chainsaws. Though they can be interpreted as variably sweet or menacing, the images investigate the role of the modern woman. Reemtsen’s paintings are characterized where paint is laid on an area of the surface in very thick layers,usually thick enough that the brush or painting-knife strokes are visible. Reemtsen’s prints including woodcuts, etchings and screenprints.
