My first reaction when visiting Kris’s site is WOW! COLOR!!
Her acrylic on vinyl work is amazingly beautiful and the color lifts me up every time. One of my favorites is “Blue Chord” and can be seen in Kris’s Etsy store.
Let me talk a bit more about her technique. She paints with acrylic on clear vinyl… in reverse. Picture yourself watching Kris paint. You are both facing each other with only a sheet of clear vinyl in between. Kris paints on the vinyl and can only see the back side. If she paints a patch of color and then paints over that patch with another color, she can no longer see that first patch of color. But you can because you are in front of the vinyl. This is how she paints and the results are amazing. It is one of the most intuitive styles that I have ever seen and
